Patient Testimonials

“I appreciated his knowledge & friendly demeanor. He asked me about past experiences & acknowledged & relieved my fears.”

“She was professional but also kind and personable. She has great bedside manner and did a great job covering all relevant information with me. I was very pleased with my experience with her.”

“My husband has had 3 previous surgeries and was in a ton of pain and very nauseous and groggy after each one! But not with Dr Shortridge. He woke up in no pain, and did not throw up for the very first time after surgery and had zero nausea.”

“He is very pleasant, will answer any questions should you have any, is very professional and as far as pain management goes he’s one of the best.”

“Very professional. He took the time to address concerns I had about strong painkillers post surgery.”
