Patient Reviews
Apr 01, 2024
Dr. Shapiro is professional and knowledgeable. I suffered with intense pain for over 10 years. After one visit he diagnosed my problem. He prescribed a medication that needed to be mixed at a compounding pharmacy and his office called it in. Within days of following his protocols i was feeling a reduction in pain. Less than a month later the pain was gone. I am healed and feeling great! Don't suffer - See him as soon as possiable and he will help you.I can't thank him enough!

About Me

Care Philosophy

  • Listen to the patient's story and get to know them as individuals, focus on the whole patient and not just the anorectal complaint, explain everything with the use of illustrations, make the decision to treat based only on improving the patients quality of life. Do not intervene because a lesion is present but not symptomatic.Be responsive to the patients concerns and treat the patient as I or my family would want to be treated.
