My concerns regarding the recent experiences my mother and I have had at Dr. Shafer’s office.During multiple visits, we have found Dr. Shafer to be consistently rushed and inattentive, offering little time to fully understand or address my mother's medical concerns. Additionally, his medical staff have come across as standoffish and unapproachable, and the nurse practitioner has shown a troubling lack of compassion and empathy toward my mother's condition and overall wellbeing.The atmosphere of the office is tense and unwelc... read more
For a neurologist office, the lack of knowledge about how a head injury affects behavior was unusual. The absolute rudeness and lack of respect that I’ve received in my life. The lThe intake person badgered me . When I mentioned my son’s recent passing, no one made eye contact with me nor did they respond
I've been seeing neurologists since I was a child for epilepsy and have had all sorts of experiences but this practice takes the cake. I have never dealt with such an arrogant, dismissive uncaring group, from the Office staff to Dr. Shafer and Stacy Smith ever. I had some hope for Stacy, she may have been less caring than Shafer. The office staff is uncaring and condecencing. Calling patients Honey and Sweetie is unprofessional. Actively searching for an alternative however there aren't many choices in this area with more th... read more
He was 45m late for the appointment, which was the first of the day. When I said something to the staff because I had an appointment afterwards, he showed up. At first he didn't listen to me at all; until I said I worked in healthcare.Everytime I call this office, I'm on hold for 5-20 minutes. Appointments are booked out 6 weeks. I'll be looking for another neurologist. I'm in agony and my MRI was 6 weeks ago. No response from them to move up the appointment, which was indicated when it was made.
Awful experience with his nurse practitioner. Will never recommend her or Dr. Shafer to anyone.
Dr. Shafer is a nice person but a Terrible Dr. His whole staff is cold and uncaring and the atmosphere is very uncomfortable. He is more of a business man. He is ALWAYS at least an hour late. His staff is not friendly at all. RUN away as fast as you can.
"My sister just had 1st visit with him. He repeated more than once that "HE is interviewing ME". He was condescending, combative and in disbelief of her long term conditions, as a result of surgeries for aneurysm brain and later AVM over a 20 year span; he simply did not believe her diagnosis or that she should be taking the prescribed medications that help manage her pain. SHE WAS INTERVIEWING HIM so she could stop her drive to Broward County to see her Neurology Team. He appeared angered that she was so knowledgeable regar... read more
Expected more compassion and sympathy for my terminally ill husband.I mean really what does that say for them as being healthcare providers let alone human beings.Im sure if it were their family member being treated as such they would be appled by the treatment we received. The doctor did not take more than 5 minutes after my husband having to wait 50 minutes beyond his appointment time to be seen. Dr.Shafer was very quick in and out the door . Barely looked up from his desk which was across the room.Never once examined my h... read more
