" Dr. Sheena has to be the best doctor our family has ever had. Dr. Sheena's approach to medicine and the care of a patient reminds one of the past when a patient was more than just an insurance payment. Many Doctors are forced to spend less and less time with a patient and sometimes will substitute a nurse in the place of a doctor. I suspect this is more because of the constant battle with the insurance company and trying to keep a medical practice in business. Dr. Sheena takes his time with ever... "
