Dr. Shands is the most personable Dr. I've ever met. He has a great bedside manner and will take the time to explain things to you in a fashion that anyone can understand.

I went in for my initial consultation today. Dr Shands was ver understanding and explained to me the procedure in full detail easy to understand.

I love this man. I could not get a diagnosis from heads of departments. They would tell me that nothing was the matter with me without seeing me or my tests. Dr Shands looked at previous tests and could tell me where my problem was and two more tests later what my problem was. He listened when I wanted to try a different treatment option that would not harm me and was perfectly honest on my limitations. He has given me a great quality of life. Knowledge is power and he gave me that.

Been seeing Dr. Shands since the early 1990s after him doing kidney surgery for me. At that time he fought for me with the insurance company for my safety. I have never forgotten. Still today he cares for me as a real person and not a number. One of the best!!!!!!!

I really like Dr Shands but I have never experienced a worst staff. They are rude, NEVER return calls, and make you feel like you shouldn’t ask questions. Were it not for my confidence in Dr Shands I would look for another doctor. The staff is your first introduction and should be the best.

My real concerns with this particular rating is not that the doctor is bad - hes quite interesting and seems knowledgeable. Im not comfortable with the end result (two months post-vasectomy and there seems to be a big disconnect in physiology). The biggest issue and the worst is the lack of motivation, concern and care by the front-desk staff. I can guarantee youll come away feeling like youre a burden on them and if you would go away, their life would be happy-happy joy-joy. I cant say enough on how poorly Id rate the office staff as a whole unit. Dont plan on being someone they care about.
