As a patient at Right Path Treatment Center, my first encounter was with Dr Shimkus. She took the time to see me as a person and not a number. I highly recommend Dr Shimkus for her knowledge base, compassion and skill in her practice of medicine.

I recently saw Dr. Shimkus at Right Path Treatment Centers and found her to be compassionate, caring and very knowledgable in her field. I am very happy she is my Doctor.

Dr. Shimkus was my Primary care Doctor in the Navy and I constantly refer to her as the best Doctor that I have ever had. I only wish that I still lived in Virginia so that I could see her every time that I need a Doctor!

I know Dr Shimkus for 16 years: never did I know her not to be emphathetic, compassionate, devoted to her job and patients. She is matter of fact, a straight shooter but at all times one feels secure in her knowledge and care. She is the type of person who would stand by you in need and never falter in supporting you, no matter what. Thank God for people like Dr. Shimkus! They restore all faith in doctors.

I wish all doctors were as caring, knowledgeable and professional. Seeks to get to the bottom of the problem instead of just throwing medications at it. I felt as though she really listened to me and was truly concerned.
