Reviews
Dr. Shepherd is the best! Highly recommend!
Office completely dysfunctional. Told me did not need appt for a re order of blood tests. Wasted two hours of my time waiting for them to call me when order was approved. Called back and then told me I did need an appt. Set July 2nd appt Called day before to confirm. No call back and when I went to appt they said I did not have one. Took off work and sent home without appt. Then I got this text same afternoon asking how my appt went. Truly pathetic
Dr. Prentice was really nice and explain everything we've been with her for several years.
Dr Prentice was absolutely amazing. Gave us information to help my son that I didn’t know was available for testing him for dyslexia. Beyond the information of medical she also provides other information for the kids such as the reading programs with the library. She a wonderful pediatrician and would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for one. She goes above and beyond for each child.
Dr. Shepherd is professional and personable. She is very thorough and has a knack for making my teen son feel comfortable. Dr. Shepherd saw my son in the hospital the day after he was born and here we are 16 years later.
