Annual Well Woman Exam

i love this office!! Dr Shimer is a rock star!!

Pellets (Hormone Therapy)

Dr.Shimer is very knowledgeable. I am fortunate to be one of her patients.

Pellets (Hormone Therapy)

The prescription process was somewhat disjointed. I discovered that the prescription to minimize breakouts wasn’t called in to my pharmacy after my first appointment. This resulted in my face breaking out. For my second pellet appointment, I took the initiative to double check that that all requested prescriptions were sent in. I discovered that two were missing. I had to call the office and request for those to be sent in. One prescription was sent to a different pharmacy than requested. I called back and got that corrected. Not the end of the world and everything was corrected but I was disappointed at the level of service on the back end.

Candidiasis / Yeast Infection

Dr. Shimer's bedside manner is so comforting and my results came back quick. When the office called, they answered all of my questions about my care and told me to reach back out if I needed anything further.

Blood Draw

I appreciate how Jennifer and Dr. Shimer as well as the other team members at Dr. Shimer's office were very attentive to me as I am 7 weeks' pregnant and have a alot of anxiety around making sure my HCG & progesterone are where they need to be! Everyone at the office has been more than willing to give me advice, reassure me that my blood levels are completely normal, and get back to me in a super timely fashion. For an anxious woman who wants so badly for everything to go well with my pregnancy, this level of support is SO SO appreciated. Thank yall so much <3

Doctor’s care was highly satisfied.

Blood Draw

It was not on time. Also I had to sign an estimated financial responsibility that I never had to sign before. The insurance is the same. I asked about it but the person that was collected my blood was not able to explain.

Friendly staff. Short wait time. Excellent rapport with Dr. Shimer.

Obstetrical (Pregnancy) Ultrasound / Sonogram

I really love Dr. Shimer and feel like I have great communication with her, which makes me feel heard as a patient. The woman working the lab (who does the blood draw) is always gentle but she often seems confused or scatterbrained. She does not communicate well and you are left sitting, wondering what the wait is for. The nurses are friendly, but the woman working the check-in leaves a lot to be desired regarding friendliness. True of my experience yesterday, every time I have talked to her on the phone, and every past visit - she makes me feel like I am an inconvenience to her, and I am almost nervous to ask her a question. Her tone is short and harsh. It's a shame because Dr. Shimer has great bedside manner, but the same does not extend to every member of her staff.

Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr Shimer and medical assistant who checked me in were both friendly and attentive. The one negative of my visit was the front desk staff. She was very short with me when I came to check in and when I asked a question as I was leaving.
