Patient Reviews
May 29, 2023
Dr. Paigel Shechter is wonderful and compassionate! Not only has he taken great care of my husband’s health, but gone beyond his duty, to keep my husband alive. He has a heart of gold, and he is the true meaning of what a doctor is supposed to be for the patient. It’s rare to find a doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient as a person with outstanding quality, he is truly dedicated to patient care. He took care of my husband; the many times he was in the hospital He has such a way about him that makes you feel so comfortable and not anxious about things. I had a huge weight lifted off my shoulders knowing he was going to take care of everything. I have total confidence in him. I would, and have, recommend him to everyone! Thank you Dr. Shechter, for everything! My husband is alive because of you!
