More than just a physician…

I have been a patient of Dr. Shannon Schrader for more than 10 years, and I am blessed with a good health, so I don’t get to go see him often. The rare times I am not well, or I need a specialist doctor, I can call and his amazing assistant books me for a visit immediately, very often within hours. But what I find amazing about him is the incredible amount of time he spends with me every year when I go for my annual physical. There is more to my visit than checking all my functions, heart and cognitive functions. Dr. Schrader is an expert listener, he is a counselor, he has ways to ask questions about all aspects of my life, and often has been able to get to the heart of some issues I truly was not even aware of. His approach to the whole body and mind way to treat a patient is so wonderful and I feel heard and advised every single time. If I could give him 10 stars, I would! I am blessed to call him “my doctor”, and in many ways “my friend”.
