It was comforting to me that Dr Shults examined me at my appointment. I had been to two other doctors for my shoulder and they just ordered scans. Dr Shults took the time to listen to my complaints and actually touched and examined my shoulder.

This is the poorest excuse for a doctor I have seen. His medical understanding of my condition was alarmingly lacking. His ethics are worse than questionable. He made blatantly false statements in his report, both about the content of conversation and about the examination (which he did not perform). I have never seen a doctor behave as badly or demonstrate such a total lack of knowledge.

Called Dr. Shults office and his staff was very friendly on the phone and were ale to get me in the same day. Even though I was an add on I only waited in the waiting room for about 10 minutes. Dr. Shults explained my knee injury very thoroughly, gave me a shot in the knee which helped me immediately. I have recommended him to several of my friends!

The lobby was empty and the wait was 1 hour 5 minutes. Dr. Shultz made eye contact with me after making judgmental remarks about my medical history. He was very unprofessional and did not seem interested in listening to me because "they were running behind" and it was time for lunch. The office staff was just as horrible as the physician. It is no wonder his practice can not stay in one place.

When no other Doctor knew what was wrong he immediately found my underlying condition. I would reccommend him to anyone and everyone. Not only is he a great surgeon but a great individual as well.
