Dr. Shuman was very helpful, knowledgeable, and empathetic during my visit. He had jotted down notes pertaining to my condition before meeting me and was able to further explain the condition, medications, and aftercare. My husband was with me for our appointment and we both left feeling more confident and grateful.
