A colonoscopy is it a pleasant experience but Dr Shaffer can leave you laughing. He always had a joke to tell and on the serious side he provides you with every bit of information about the procedure results and answers any questions you might have. In my old age I have quite a few doctors but he isn’t absolute favorite.

I was seen for a colonoscopy, and doctor Schaffer had excellent bedside manners, he's very good at what he does, and he gave me a very thorough post-procedure brief that gave me all the necessary information I needed going forward- and he's a veteran.

I've been to several GI's that were good, but none were as good as Dr. Shaffer. He was very friendly, listened to my concerns, took a genuine interest in my health and spent time figuring out the best course of action. I didn't feel like just a paycheck. Highly recommended
