Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best Doctor EVER!!!

My husband and I have been Dr. Sheldon's patients since 2012 and would never go anywhere else. She CARES. It's not just about making a buck or prescribing medications, she actually takes the time to know you and help you be the healthiest you can be. She typically runs on schedule, so don't be late as they will reschedule your appointment. I love this because it allows her to not run behind due to everyone coming in late. It will be a sad day if I ever have to change doctors.

I have been seeing Dr. Sheldon for over ten years now. My son and daughter have both chosen her as their physician as well. Patient, knowledgeable, thorough, and reliable - Dr. Sheldon is the best doctor we've encountered. The front office staff is great too.

I've been going to Dr. Sheldon for over 10 years. My mom was her patient, and I like her so much that I became her patient, and my daughter goes to see her also. Dr. Sheldon is easy to talk to, she listens to what you have to say about your health and your suggestions. I highly recommend her.
