    Dr. Schafer was kind and very professional. She was able to help me locate and alleviate pain that I had for years, and 2 other orthopedic doctor's dismissed my concerns because they were non-surgical. I'm grateful to have learned and be treated by a doctor that cares about her patients.

    Dr Schafer was very patient and answered all my questions. She explained in a way I could understand, what she was going to do and what I could expect.
