I would like prompt service when I'm coming to the doctor. Some days I am a little early and have to wait a long length of time. Should I have prompt service at the time of my appointment? Thank you.

My experience was very helpful, smooth, friendly and just an overall an amazing experience. I felt cared for and about from the front of the office to the back and every time I had an appointment.

Yes, I would like to give compliments to the orthopedic staff, both the doctor and the residents and the nurses. Again, the front staff, when you register, could be a little bit more friendlier. This was a complaint last time, and I understand it's a complaint from other patients, too. And the front staff could be a little bit more friendlier when you register. Thank you.

This doctor looked at my hand one time without explaining anything and he was not helpful at all
May 24, 2026

The check-in experience was less than desirable. This line included check-in and check-out patients. I felt bad for everyone. The line was out the door this morning. I did see one small sign behind the check-in desk apologizing for the inconvenience. Us, old folks, can't read that sign until we get right up to the check-in/check-out window. As a first impression of this scenario, I was worried that I would only be treated as a number and not a individual patient. I really did consider walking out. But I decided to stay. I check in but had a hard time hearing the young lady behind the counter. Wasn't her fault, all the other patients were talking so loudly. Dr. Shiver was a friendly, knowledgeable, funny and definitely brings your stress level down while discussing your treatment options.
