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.

Wonderful Doctor
I have been going to Dr. Sheldon since I moved to Florida 12 years ago. I have found her to be a warm, knowledgeable and exceptional physician. I feel very fortunate to have found her.

Dr Sheldon helped my 99 year old so much with Diagnosis and treatment. I would highly recommend to any women looking for a top gynecologist Dr Sheldon. Had great bedside manners and quickly understood my mom’s issue.

Sarah Shelden, DO: Beware. GET A SECOND OPINION.
I went to Dr. Shelden 3/2021 with uncontrolled "extreme" urinary incontinence. She said I had a prolapsed bladder and bulging bowel & needed to see their Urogynocologist. I couldn't get an apptmt before I left for MI. I made an appointment with a urogynocologist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor & was told I DID NOT have a prolapsed bladder or bowel. I believed it because I had no symptons & the incontinence was clearing up with OTC medicine, water & time. The misdiagnosis by Dr. Shelden cost me a lot of time, trouble and money!!! AND who knows what else if their urogynocologist had seen me; I might have ended up with a hysterectomy. My Women's Care portal had NO summary of the pelvic exam. A sent them a release of information and asked for the pelvic exam report.The report said "Urinary Problems: patient reports no urinary incontinence or other urinary health problems no bowel health problems". In addition to a misdiagnosis, Dr. Shelden falsified my medical record.
