    Dr. Schafer is a very good, and caring doctor, and fixed my problem today in my shoulder, and would highly recommend him to be anybody's doctor. Thank you.

    Parrish is a wonderful care provider. Especially my orthopedic surgeon Dr David Schafer. He's the best. And I have total confidence in his abilities to care for my care needs.

    Ask me to explain my problem and then talked to me about all the treatment to do. Spent time and listen to me and was very helpful and not in hurry to get me out of there. Great job

    Yes, the doctor talked to me like I was a juvenile that had no say so in my, that I had no say so in my care. And he talked down to me the whole visit. And I didn't appreciate that. He listened to me, but he didn't, was unwilling to take my care that I wanted to do into account. And it was almost a complete waste of my time going in there to see him. And I truly am going to, considering changing doctors after that visit. And I would have been, if he had treated me in a patient, in a professional, more profe

    Well thank you for the opportunity to say hello. Dr. Schafer was very courteous and checked out the shoulders today and I was able to discover the potentials of what I could do to improve. And at my age I decided that I probably live with it and ... and just take care and go on from there. So thanks for the opportunity to say hi and I'm ... I'm pleased with the results of ... of our discussion. I've learned quite a bit and thank you. Have a great day.

    Dr. Schafer is fantastic. The office staff although very polite and nice did not seem to have the amount of information that I would expect. Not knowing when MRI test results were done was a nuisance and getting my information moved on to the specialist the Dr. recommended should not take several phone calls.
