ALEX SHIKHMAN, MD, PHD - INSTITUTE FOR SPECIALIZED MEDICINE

I am very blessed to be seeing Neenah the PA. As an RN I have told many of my patients to go to her because she is SUPER intelligent and...AND compassionate! That is hard to find in the same person. She listens to you as a patient, I know sounds basic but really hard to find a provider who calmly listens and hears what you are saying and takes it into account. I have a complex case and got answers I had not gotten after years with many providers. I really appreciate that Neenah knows herbs and western medicine. I respond well to herbs but sometimes medicine has its place and she knows both. I was really relieved they could do the labs while in the office and the MA Barbara did a wonderful job. They did labs I really needed to get done and found things nobody had found. Which is so helpful when you don't feel well and start to feel like there is no hope. The front desk girls are sweet, fast, and are patient with helping me find an appointment that works with my schedule.

Dr Shikhman saved my life! After a 3 minute conversation he knew what I had, he did blood tests and was spot on! I had seen a dozen doctors over 4 1/2 years, ending with an insinuation "it's all in your head" in spite of a long list of physical symptoms. I had deteriorated from a very healthy, physically fit woman to a weak, thin, pale whisper of myself. I was unable to hold a thought or finish a sentence. I thank God for this amazing doctor!!!

Dr Shikhman is a great doctor. He figured out my medical issue as well as the solution (no other doctor was able to). I'm 100% better now thanks to him. If you're far, it's worth the drive.
