I would definitely recommend Dr. Schuman, he is my husband’s doctor for over a year. How he put up w/us is truly amazing, especially one of my daughters...I can only say, thank you, you & your amazing staff have been compassionate & so patient...you have left lengthy messages on my machine regarding my husband’s health & treatment & have bent over backwards for us. I was so wrapped up tending my husband & followng him from hospital to rehabs, I didn’t tell this man how much I depend on him & the care he gives my husband...thank you soooo much Dr. Schuman, you & your staff are just awesome!!!! ??
