Patients also share
The reviews reveal minimal areas for improvement, with only two notable concerns among the overwhelmingly positive feedback. One patient rated their experience 3.1 stars, expressing that they felt Shawn did not completely listen to their problem and considered the visit a waste of time for both parties. Another patient gave a 3.97 star rating with only the brief comment "It was brief," suggesting the appointment may have felt too short or lacking in depth. These concerns about feeling unheard or experiencing insufficient appointment time represent isolated incidents but indicate occasional gaps in the patient experience.
