Dr. Shalini is kind and caring and made me feel cared for by taking the time to listen to my questions even though I felt a little ashamed. She showed compassion and empathy, and helped me define an appropriate course of treatment while being transparent and proving important information that was uncomfortable to hear. I appreciated that she was empathetic and not judgmental.

- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/4/2021
I love Dr. Shalini, but communications with the office are extremely difficult. I call and leave messages and seldom receive a callback. I send messages over the portal and they remain unread for days. The call center is extremely helpful, but most of the time they are as successful as I am reaching someone. Except for Dr. Shalini, the services have been quite frustrating. I truly want to stay a patient, but my patience is wearing thin.

Dr Shalini is very knowledgeable, caring, she listens and asks the right questions. She does not let me get away with generic answers when evaluating me. I feel very comfortable with her as my healthcare partner in making evidence medical decisions moving forward. She is phenomenal! Kaylee gives the best shot that I have ever had. I did not even feel it and flu shots have been an issue for me in the past.
