Emily S.

Dr. Shawl is a wonderful doctor, surgeon, and human! I'd been coming to him for a few years specifically for ear issues, which he took care of well. He's always been kind, and personable, and I love asking him about his art - especially when new pieces arrive. A few years in to being his patient, he brought up how he could help fix my deviated septum to breathe better if I wanted to consider it. I never thought about that before, plus surgery makes me nervous in general, but I did take some time to think about it and ultimately deiced to do it. I'm just shy of 4 weeks post-surgery now and I'm already feeling an incredible difference, and my ability to breathe and get air in my lungs thanks to the septum fix is amazing - and healing isn't even over! He clearly did a wonderful job as a surgeon, and I'm so happy to have him as my doctor. I'd recommend him to literally everyone!

Christie L.
