Wasn't really given time to think about treatment options, spent most of the appointment going over my medications

Dr. Shetty and his staff took time to listen to me and my issues with adjusting to CPAP. The nurse offered to call my CPAP store to discuss a mask change and tried a sample mask on me. It ended up being too small, but it was such a kind gesture. Most doctors and staff just want to rush you along to get to the next patient, but this office is the kindest and most patient that I have encountered in the Wellstar system.
