Dr Shaw is an excellent doctor! She always listens to my concerns and works with me to find the best treatment options.
I have been in intense pain in my knee for over a week. Dr Shaw quickly assessed the situation, came up with a plan, including needed labs and X-rays and proceeded to inject cortisone and to offer her opinion on future treatments should the Injection not work. The treatment was immediately successful, I am feeling so much better one day later. I drive approx 300 miles round trip to see Dr Shaw for in person visits. It is worth it. She always takes her time, she performs a detailed check up, goes over all meds, asks you what you think the problem is and she takes action via a treatment, medication, or a referral. I can't thank her enough.
