I have been with him for many years and have referred quite a few people to him. He is friendly, knowledgeable and very patient. His staff is also. Everyone I sent to him is satisfied with the care he provides them also.

Dr. Shanableh is very knowledgeable, always keeping abreast of what's new in the medical field. He took wonderful care of my elderly parents and has been my doctor for the past 15 years. He is thorough, taking time to answer questions and explain things at each patient's level of understanding. Great doctor!

I find this Dr. to be very kind, a great bedside manner, great staff. He is just not thorough enough though, he does not seem to order enough tests in my honest opinion. He goes out of town for a month and does not have any sub that accepts walk-ins for established patients sending them to a sub par local clinic or urgent care.
