Dr. Sheftel is excellent in patient-centered manner as well as treatment for myself. And I have a great deal of respect for him throughout many years, leaving Lincoln Emerson and coming back to the Willow Fire practice due to such a positive influence he had in the early years of my treatment.

Trying to get in the virtual waiting room through My Chart was a nightmare! It made me go through a ridiculous amount of screens, and when I didn't know the answer, it didn't let me skip! I ended up just pushing random keys to fill stuff in randomly, just so I could have the virtual visit! It was sooo frustrating and difficult!

Parking is atrocious.. you need to have reserved parking for patients. It is very dificult to find a parking space prior to appointment. Also not enough invalid parking spaces..also need to provide directions to new patients so they can find the office in a more timely manner.

It was hard to find the office and I have back problems so was difficult to walk the distance from parking to the office. Then I had to pay to park which I dont anywhere else. I think the office should compensate for parking. Its not our fault the doctor is in a building that charges for parking.. also when leaving the office the parking deck is not obvious where it is. There needs to be a sign as to which way to elevators that go to the parking decks.

Dr. Sheftel has been our trusted primary care physician for decades and is exceptional. He has been central to our family's Healthcare success and a longstanding professional and ambassador for Wellstar.

The practice is clearly being over-scheduled which is disrespectful to both the staff and patients but I don't think that will be news to anyone who sees this, unfortunately. No one should have to wait for an hour for an appointment once, let alone multiple times, and I feel bad the doctor is apologizing for the wait when I assume he has no control over it with a large company.
