I was very happy with my recent visit with Dr. Shavin. He was able to properly diagnose my skin condition and it cleared up in a couple of weeks. I highly recommend anyone with skin issues to visit Dr. Shavin!

I had to have a biopsy and have a fear of needles. Dr. Shavin made the visit painless, made me laugh and I got through without passing out. Awesome visit for a grown up cry baby.
