This doctor should not have a license. You can do the research yourself. I promise it’s there if you search for it.

He was superb in every manner possible....when you're dealing with the public you make mistakes and some people just love to complain & degrade another individual for whatever reason. No one's perfect no not one. He is a good man

Dr. Shen and the nurses are absolutely wonderful. However, one particular receptionist has the worst attitude I have ever seen in my life. That's why I gave only two starts as far as staff friendliness. The rest of the office personnel are wonderful. Dr. Shen and Gaynell Brown are both wonderful and take time with you and show that they care.

This doctor is so caring and dedicated to the welfare of the patients. He delivered my baby in 1990. Even though I've moved to a different state many years ago, he has went on to deliver my two daughters children. When I go back home everyone still talks about Dr. Shen. He is the best ever.
