Dr. Scott Gregory Shipley, MD

We went to see Dr.Shipley for our 5-year-old son with unilateral hearing loss. He checked his ears, nose and throat. He looked at the audiologists report showing the hearing loss. We asked him what could be the cause of the hearing loss and he said it's a hard thing to diagnose (I'm sure it is). He said we really could do any tests we want, it's just up to us. He said genetic testing might be helpful but insurance usually won't cover it. The feeling my husband and I both got from the appt. was that Dr.Shipley didn't have an opinion on what we should do and didn't offer any direction for us to go other than genetic testing. But even with that information, we'd still be left not knowing what to do about the hearing loss. We both left feeling so frustrated, like Dr. Shipley just threw up his hands and said, "I don't know, you can do whatever you want." But we came to him for HIS opinion as a doctor, not to leave feeling most lost than when we came in. We've since seen another provider at… American Fork Hospital. After this visit we received a referral for a CT scan and know what other options might be considered in the future such as a cochlear implant or hearing aid. This other provider had information for us whereas Dr.Shipley seemed to throw his hands in the air and just say "you can do whatever you think is best."

Dr Shipley is great! He is very caring, competent, & professional. He will spend as much time with you as you need. Very patient & knowledgable. I highly recommend!

Dr Shipley removed my Left Thyroid(Cancer) and did a great job. Wonderful surgery and great follow up visits where I was back on my feet and back to work within a week. The biggest issue I had was they took a good 2 months to bill me. Price and everything was reasonable but that amount of time is on the side of ridiculous. This was back in 2014, hopefully staff surrounding him has gotten better. His work, knowledge, and care with me was phenomenal, I would highly recommend based off my experience.

An excellent Doctor he listens well and takes time to cover all aspects of your case.

Worst doctor ever! Just cares about the money not the patient. He seems half a sleep all the time , while you are trying to talk to him. Something is wrong with him. He will never look you straight in the eye. Doesn't really seem concern with what it wrong with you at all. Terrible - Terrible doctor! Wouldn't recommend him to anyone.

We brought our 2 year old daughter to see Dr. Shipley when we noticed she was snoring loudly, and were concerned she might have sleep apnea (like her dad.) Like her pediatrician, he examined her in the office, watched a home video we had made of her sleeping, and recommended surgery right away to remove her tonsils and adenoids, which we were thankful for...I didn't want her to have to endure a sleep study at that young age. Dr. Shipley was so good with our daughter, and the surgery went very smoothly. Best of all, it was effective for treating her OSA, and she is now a very sound and peaceful sleeper, even 10 years later. I highly recommend Dr. Shipley.

I suffered from chronic tonsil stones and bad breath. I waited years before seeing a doctor because of the horror stories I had heard about getting your tonsils out as an adult. Dr. Shipley and staff were very friendly and accommodating as I needed my surgery done on a certain date and time. I was able to get in fast for my appointment AND my surgery. The recovery was 100x better than I had expected and Dr. Shipley was readily available for my post-op questions and concerns and did his best to make me comfortable and safe throughout recovery. He seems to really care a lot about his patients. I am so glad I went through with getting my tonsils out and now I no longer have ANY throat problems. Thanks to an amazing surgeon Dr. Shipley!

He spent 5 minutes with my daughter. They claimed later on the bill that they removed ear wax when no such thing took place as my wife was present for the consultation. All he did was talk to my wife for 5 minutes. They then billed us for $380. Cigna called and told them the maximum for that visit could only be $216. I called the office but they explained that it was worth it because Dr. Shipley is a specialist to which I said he didn't do anything in 5 minutes. In addition they explained that they charged about $150 to enroll my daughter with them. I told them I didn't accept to have my daughter enrolled with Dr. Shipley nor was my wife told this either. They said that they do it with all new patients. This office is an example of the poor service and over pricing of Obama Care, AHCA. We now drive to SLC for eye work for our daughter because we found the costs were half what Dr. Shipley charged and the doctors had higher ratings with Cigna and other review services. This site gave… high ratings to Dr. Shipley which is why we went to him. We believe these prior ratings were false reviews to pump up his practice.

Our daughter became ill while attending school in Provo. Dr. Shipley took excellent care of her and even performed minor surgery in the office to make her feel good as new again. We are so thankful for the wonderful care Dr. Shipley and his staff provided to our daughter!

Our 18 month old daughter has had countless ear infections over the past year. Dr. Shipley was very gentle with her and very reassuring to us as parents. Dr. Shipley did surgery to put tubes in her ears, and she couldn't be happier now. The surgery was quick and her recovery was even quicker.
