Testimonials

When I first met Dr. Shor, I was in intensive care, 29 years old, and frightened. I was very ill. He was direct but kind. He didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, but he told me what I needed to hear. In the past, I often felt patronized or marginalized by health professionals. Dr. Shor gives his patients respect, validation and the truth. I have chronic illness (Crohns disease and Lyme). Under Dr. Shor's care, I believe that I am a part of a treatment team. There is honest dialogue and trust between us. His excellent patient care should be the standard, not the exception. I am grateful to be his patient. Sterling, VA

Miracle worker is the term I would use to describe Dr. Shor. There is no other doctor who treats you with respect the way Dr. Shor does. You are truly a part of your own healthcare team. If this is not enough, Dr. Shor really listens and addresses all of your concerns. You never feel rushed or that your concerns are not valid. I know that without Dr. Shor I would not have gotten my life back. I have gone from someone who was so fatigued that I had become isolated because I was unable to perform even the simplest of tasks on a daily basis to someone who has begun to have a life again. Words can never express my gratitude. You are truly a rare doctor and person. You have set a standard that all doctors should aspire too. I am just grateful that I am one of your patients

Have seen a number of internists over the years, and just want to say that Dr Shor is NOT your average internist. He knows so much more about so many things, and is able to help, when another internist would have to pass you off to a specialst for anything but the very basic problems. Beyond that, it's obvious that he truly cares about his patients, doesn't overcharge, and works long hours to give everyone the very best care. I sincerely trust him with my life. Can't imagine that you could find a better internist. Please don't ever retire!

I am proud to call him my doctor, and appreciate all he does for his patients

Dr. Shor - I graduated from nursing school this week, and I am reminded again that none of this would have been possible if I had not been blessed enough to find you. Less than five years ago I could have never even imagined going back to school, much less completing an entire nursing program in 12 months. It simply would not have been possible given how sick I was. But I did it, and I feel better than I ever have. And you've so inspired me, I intend on going back to school within the next two years to become a nurse practioner. Unfortunately, I'm fairly certain I could fill an entire practice with just the people I know who have lyme. I know that's not surprising to you, but I'm still stunned that virtually every week I hear about someone else who has been diagnosed. But it's reassuring to know that there are doctors like you making progress against this disease. And I hope eventually I will be able to do my part as well

“I AM FEELING LESS SICK! I see this as a miracle! I am doing things that I haven't done in years. .. I BELIEVE that you are the instrument that God has placed in my life. You are His healing hands, and I wanted to report this miracle… I am so impressed with your ability to listen to what I say...I am blessed as I have said to have you as my advocate and doctor who TRULY cares for me and all his patients in every way” CK

You transformed our entire family from one whose future looked destroyed to a family that now holds a future full of good health and happiness
