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.

Arrogant and inconsiderate to his patients
Dr. Shill consistently runs late and is inconsiderate of his patient's time. He complains about system inefficiencies when he should be taking time to care for the patient in front of him. Calls off sick a lot. Wouldn't trust him to care for my family members.

Puts patients first!
Dr. Shill was amazing. He was able to fit me into his schedule last minute. I could tell he cared about me as a patient; from the minute I stepped into the clinic until I left I felt like more than just a number. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!!

Wants me to succeed!
Dr Shill and his staff take the time to really understand my personal history, my relationship with food, and how I can individually overcome setbacks. I recommend them to ANYONE looking for weightloss from a clinic that is 100% commited to helping you reach your goals. I feel like more than just an unknown patient or number of a scale. They care!!

Listens!
I have suffered from Migraines for 30 years. I had given up on medical help because of my past experience. Dr Shill truly cares, he took the time to listen to me. He then prepared a plan allowing me to be a part of the available options for improved longterm health. I have had a drastic decrease in the number and severity of my migraines. I refer friends and strangers to him, because he is that good!

Excellent Physician
I have worked with Dr Shill a number of times on various occasions in with a whole host of various patient encounters. I can say with full confidence that I would want him caring for my family. He is very knowledgeable, goes above and beyond and is more on top of topics compared to other docs I've worked with. Patients should rest assured that they are in good hands with Dr Shill.

Care with this provider for a number of months. He repeatedly demonstrated failure to assess and diagnose accurately. He failed to treat correctly. Could not accurately read X-ray reports where the radiologist had provided accurate information and directed the need for a follow up X-ray. He is unable to interpret lab testing results and mismanaged care. Do not recommend this Dr. Avoid him.

I highly recommend seeing Dr. Shill for any of your health needs. Each time I’ve seen him, he’s addressed my issues and concerns with professionalism and the utmost care and respect. I never felt I was taking too much of his time nor did I feel rushed. He truly cares for his patients and understands his field very well. I’ve seen a lot of doctors, but few are as good as Dr. Shill. Highly recommend!!
