Dr. Karla Ruth Shively

This doctor hands out drugs for patients like it’s candy. Injured your ankle? No point in an X-ray, here are some narcotics. Then 2 weeks later it is found broken. She is terrible and has unprofessional staff. She worries more about if you like her than treating you. I have also waited two hours in a room one day to be told when I walked out she forgot I was in there. Terrible practice.

The doctor is wonderful; she knows what she's doing, she explains things, and listens to and answers questions, I've never felt rushed in her office. Some members of the office staff, however, need a LOT of work on their people skills and need to pay more attention to details, like getting prescription refills correct and answering questions. One of them was very rude when I asked questions about whether tests results were in yet.

office runs late most of the time. Office staff not always aware of what's going on. Doctor herself is great.
