Retired R.N. sending a shout to perspective patients. Dr. Shea is one of the most professional, down to earth, and knowledgeable cardiologist in the area. As a patient of his for many years, I only recommend physicians after having truly participated with them from a patients standpoint. As an R.N. and a patient, Dr. Shea is one of the best doctors I've had the privilege of working with. I hope you find "your" Dr. Shea!

Dr. Shea is absolutely professional, and knows what he is talking about. HIs is currently my mothers cardiologist, and he treats her with great respect, and explains everything in terms she understands. I wouldn't take her to ANYONE else
