Review for Dr. Yung

Dr Seib took the time to explain different options and possible reasons for my husbands back pain. He was genuine, knowledgeable, and so kind and thorough! We were both quite impressed! The receptionist was very caring as well!

Review for Dr. Seib

I was referred to Dr. Shafer by my primary care Dr. to receive an injection in my wrist for a DeQuervain's issue that I had been battling for months. I was pretty nervous about it, but knowing it was going to be helpful, I just wanted to do it and get it over with! Dr. Shafer was very professional...
