I was having anxiety. He called it my lady problem. Every time I have seen him he seems overwhelmed. He apologizes and says "It's not you, it's me." My coworker and I were talking about bad doc office experiences, and realized we were talking about the same doctor!

This Dr. Had me going to so many other drs for no good reason. He only order a ct scan and blood work, and states nothing more he can do, when I was inform by my vascular Dr. About hidden notes was alarming, that is why I never got help. I have a serious disease lipidema, . no cure!! Never gave me any direction! My new doctor a primary care, is acting and doing what a doctor should be doing for a patient. She has done more for me in one visit than the 2 month with David. No doctor should profile and enforce patient is mentally unstable, my pain for years was this disease, I feel this doctor should have more education, and make a effort to help! Anyone can order test, it listening to patient and think for himself! 3 years of my life is gone due to no help, just profile, this should have been address long time ago, so I could get prevention in place, to slow the disease takes over.!

The best thing about Dr. Shinkunas is his bedside manner. Before I moved out of state, he was my primary care doctor. No matter the issue, he always makes you feel relaxed and confident that he will get to the bottom of it. I wish I could have taken him with me when I moved away.

I feel so fortunate to have found Dr Shinkunas. I'm 54 and had a few drs in my life, none as patient, understanding and caring as him. Staff is great too!
