DO NOT RECOMMEND. Diagnosed after one visit and no history taken. Staff extremely rude and ignorant. Dr. Shafa had me on 8 different medications at one time, which made me gain a tremendous amount of weight, and turned me into a zombie. He kept adding and adding meds.. My quality of life suffered as a result of seeing this doctor. Yeah, he listens -- he listens to people tell their life stories for 45 minutes - while you're sitting in the waiting room, as he has no concept of time and does not seem to care that he has 5 people waiting for him. There is no computer system at all, and everything is done via old school (old-fashioned files, and old-fashioned date book with double and triple booked appointments). I went though hell as a result of seeing this doctor. You want to spend your days waiting between 3 and 8 hours if you take him on as your doctor. There are certainly more competent doctors out there, with a more professional staff. I'm sorry I wasted all those hours waiting. Happy to say, I have a new doctor, and am in great shape as a result!!
