The heart I felt from the staff really makes me look forward to working with them. Only time will tell, how bad I need them in my life. Hopefully I have a short relationship with them (meaning I am healthy), but if not the heartbeat of the office has me relaxed and knowing I am in good hands. Dr Shimkushas a great energy about him. The lady that took my blood did a wonderful job. Or should I say in the Scottish accent, "jab".

The appointment process was very efficient. I checked in and was called almost immediately to go back for my lab work. The nursing staff were very friendly and the technician who did the bloodwork was attentive to my needle phobia. Waiting time to see Dr. Shimkus was less than 10 minutes

Actually it was Gary. He was treated well and always has been. Feel like the nurses really care and have a sense of humor. Really like Dr. Shimkus as well.
