    He cares about his patients and explains things in detail. He will help you to get the care you need even if he isn't the right fit for your specific need.

    He was very knowledgeable, courteous, and kind. He explained things in a way I was able to understand and gave me time to process things on my own. I felt heard and understood. He defiantly knows how to make you feel seen and not just like another number. So thank you!

    Dr. Shelton exudes confidence, knowledge, and he genuinely listens. That combination is reassuring and opens the space for an open and honest discussion. I cannot thank him enough for his knowledge and effort to change my life and it worked!! He is a great example of how the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ achieves such high ratings in health care.
