Dr. Robert Shellman, MD

Dr. Shellman has a great sense of humor and I enjoyed our visit.

HORRIFIC! Needs to retire, he has lost his gift if he ever had one. He was CURSING at my elderly father in law! Using the eff word even. Demeaning. Belittling. Unprofessional. It is completely tragic garbage physicians are allowed to behave like this. I’ve been a trauma ER nurse for over ten years; this man probably never should have been a doctor. He truly is demonic. Definitely one of the bad rotten ones, and a shame the hospital has someone like this representing them.

Called his mother stupid. Brought up politics and his views. He did not seem to believe what I was stating as concerns and my reasonings, basically told me if I wasn’t going to take what he had prescribed (which I physically can’t take) that he doesn’t know what else to do for me. Also told me that he had patients that didn’t take their medicine and died in car accidents, but “wasn’t trying to scare me”. Questioned me about having an eating disorder when my chief complaint was how a medication was causing me to lose weight…Made comments about “every woman”, and not in a constructive manner. I left my appointment with essentially no information or help, and feeling like I was degraded and disregarded.

Very professional, great bedside manner and exam.

I couldn’t believe he said the exact same thing to me…same story about the only 3 people who love you. I don’t feel like the doctors at Major take my COPD seriously. I’m going to check out Franciscan…

Honest and straightforward

Very fast efficient staff, clean office, and Shellman explained things in terms I could understand with what's been going on with me

Informative, complete.

I felt like I got talked down to

The 2nd visit with Dr. Shellman returned to a frank and honest discussion of activities/medications to continue and further changes needed to keep improving my breathing. Many options were presented.

Had a dry sense of humor.

Excellent attention and a lot of patience.

Condescending

This man talked more about how great he thinks he is than about my daughter’s issues. Told my 15 year old “only 3 people will love you in your life, your mom because she carried you in her stomach, your boyfriend because he has to say it to get what he wants, and your doctor because he wants to make money off of you.” He also told her that he wants to keep her alive so he can continue to make money off of her, told her that if she’s in a relationship and she doesn’t like them anymore to just go find someone else because there are 8 billion people in the world (while bragging about divorcing his first wife)…I could go on but you get the point. He went on to brag about his accomplishments, being an Eagle Scout, sending his kids to a fancy expensive private school(after he said “I assume you go to one of the local public schools?”) like we weren’t good enough, and then had the audacity to make my 15 year feel like an idiot for wanting to be a labor and delivery nurse. Never again!

The Dr and staff were on time and very respectful. Time is important to me although they never make ME feel hurried.

Pulmonology staff were very polite and professional. They made sure all of my questions were answered and gave great care.

Basically told me how smart he was and how dumb I was because I didn't want a covid-19 vaccine or the flu vaccine nor medicine due to i prefer as natural as possible. Told me personal things that I didn't care to know. Then as I left told me to fly away in front of his staff and they all laughed at me. Yes I did make a complaint to the vise president. This doctor needs to resign. I hope others come forward because no one deserves to be treated this way ever. This was also my first visit to see him when this happened.

N/A

He’s honest and some people don’t appreciate that if their health situation is a result of being overweight, etc. I got along quite well with him and I saw him today and will see him again in three months. I want a doctor to be straight forward with me and some of my old habits have resulted in C.O.P.D. and I accept that and won’t make those mistakes again.

Absolute best doctor I’ve ever met. Straight forward and to the point. If you’re going to a medical doctor to get your feelings pampered, YOU are the problem. You went to see him because you have a medical condition and in his field, if you don’t correct the stuff that’s wrong with you, YOU WILL NOT IMPROVE. So get over your hurt feelings and do what most of you should have been doing all along! You’re just upset because someone finally called you out... be grateful it was someone who can help you! Or... don’t and go find a doctor who can stroke your ego and help you support Big Pharma for the rest of your life. Your choice
