Terrible. Does not respond to phone calls. Changes medications and then has no follow-up with patients when they have adverse side effects.

Dr Shaw was very professional and very kind given my situation. During a very difficult time, it was nice to talk to someone and hear myself laugh again, when I haven’t in a long time. He has a great sense of humor which made talking to him feel natural. I wish I lived closer to make him my regular therapist. Thank you again for taking the time to listen to me, and help me with advice and understanding.

I contacted Dr. Shaw for my 92 year old Uncle who suffered from delusions. I left 3-4 messages regarding medication refill questions. Noone ever called back so I then paged Dr. Shaw in which he yelled at me stating he didn't have time & had many patients! I've never heard of an office that doesn't return your calls pertaining to medication! In that he speaks very quietly & my Uncle was so very hard of hearing, he spoke so quietly but certainly was able to raise his voice at me when he was paged! Highly unprofessional!

At first things went well, but then I had a bad side effect from one of my meds and needed to speak with Dr. Shaw. I left five messages and finally got one call back which I missed. I left two more messages and to this day I have still not heard back. There is also a very rude receptionist running his office, Mary, that doesn’t give him messages. You can never get a hold of Dr. Shaw, everything goes through Mary. You have to depend on her to help you and she won’t. Recently I tried to get a medication refilled and got no res... read more

Rude, nasty and uncaring secretary!

I’ve been with Dr Shaw for 10 years but due to his very rude, nasty secretary Mary, I’ve decided to leave Dr Shaw. Not only is his secretary rude and nasty, she doesn’t give him my messages, tells me she’s very busy when I’m just being polite. I couldn’t get her to understand that my depression was so bad that I desperately needed to speak to Dr Shaw because my medication wasn’t working, still no return call from either Mary or the doctor. You can’t help noticing that this nasty woman never cracks a smile, she doesn’t even l... read more

Dr. Shaw has been my psychiatrist for 20 years. I benefit from his common sense/down to earth clinical care and behavioral guidance. Dr. Shaw's approachable style will facilitate a comfortable conversation between doctor and patient.

Referred to Dr. Shaw from a primary care doc for my elderly Mom. He made the situation much worse prescribing Xanax to a woman of 80 living alone & driving! She went down the rabbit hole after 2 visits and Xanax was devastating. He refused to discuss her care with us when we requested she be weaned from this medication. Women get misdiagnosed . Mom's symptoms were cardiac not entirely anxiety related she died of a heart attack. Just another pill pusher to treat and street in our opinion.
