About Kenneth B Shephard
Reviews for Kenneth B Shephard
The answering department here are very rude and not interested in helping anyone. The front desk staff is always eating , messing. You can even see an oven and microwave in the front desk. It’s truly unbelievable. To be a medical office this place is filthy.
The worst services possible!!! Looks like Doctor Delgado is experienced and good doctor but the way everything organized is horrible. You need to wait 1 or even 2 hours It’s absolutely unacceptable. Very disappointing.
RUN - RUN as fast as you can as far away as you can. Got a referral for an Endocrinologist from my Rheumatologist. Requested an appointment and that's when the headache started, they would call me every other day to either confirm the appointment or request additional documents from my doctor. I forwarded everything they requested, and now Today - hours away from my appointment they have the audacity to call me and tell me that the "doctor" didn't want to see me because my labs were fine. Excuse me? I have a referral from another professional, doesn't that deserve at least a conversation? I'll be looking for another doctor that can be human and provide good customer service to its patients.

Listen to the reviews. The staff are completely inept and inconsiderate. Avoid.
His office personnel is horrible. They don’t relay messages, they don’t assist patients at all. I will not be returning.
I went and the doctor don't see you he sends another Doctor to see you to me she didn't care she gave me a med that almost put me in the hospital the inst were written all scramble I called none is returning my call will be notifying Humana of their carelessness not a good place to go !
I’ve been going to Dr Shephard for years but today I walked into the office and the waiting room is full, standing room only; things have changed no more respect for patients time; running super late and staff doesn’t provide any explanation; I found out that they had booked 8 patients for the 7:30am appointment slot; how is that possible? It only shows they have no respect for their patients’ time and other engagements such as getting to work. For sure I will be looking for another provider someone that respect and has considerations for their patients. It’s a shame to see this practice has gone down the drain.
First time and my experience was amazing the Staff is super busy but they will help you..
The office staff are rude. They don’t appear to have control of the appointments and don’t communicate before hand if a referral or paperwork is needed. My first time and last time coming. I heard that Dr.Shephard is seeing patients and his associates are. They don’t tell you this when you set an appointment. I have been waiting over 2hrs and still have not seen the doctor.

This doctor used to have great reviews, but I see this is changing dramatically. I have been with dr Sheppard for years, but the staff is getting WORSE. Long waits, not easy that you get your call answered. I still go wirh him because he is very knowleadeable and professional. All of my experiences with him were great until last year where he didnt have enough time for me. I will try again this year and post an update.

Thank you for not answering your phones, roughly 20 plus times that I called. Thank you for making miss work and no lab being done. What a freaking day....
Horrible customer service! Thank god i didn't schedule an apt with this doctor! Called with a referral from my primary and they still didn't want to schedule me. Please do yourself a favor and go seek help somewhere else.
I have been trying to get a refill for my husband before our holiday trip and no one has helped. I am using this as a last resort to see if i can get a response.

I don't understand why all the bad reviews. This is a great doctor!! My waiting time has always been reasonable, the staff is nice and professional and Dr. Shephard is amazing. He takes the time to listen and is very thorough. My health has really improved since I started seeing him. The office is busy and sometimes is full but they do give the option to wait at the car if you are not comfortable at their waiting room. I would definetely give them more stars if I could. People need to stop writing bad reviews for non sense. Someone might miss a great doctor because of this. I don't understand why all the bad reviews. This is a great doctor!!

This place is horrible, people waiting of more than an hour and not only that the room full to the rim forget 6 feet apart. This office had 12 chairs in the lobby and 11 were filled when I walked in. The Staff had no idea when the the doctor was going to be able to attend me after already waiting for an hour. This place should be report to the CDC.

Doctor was great. He gives you the time you need, not in a rush, he listens to you. But waiting time to see him was 2 hours.

Nurse Ivette didn’t release my moms results, thats the patients right. She just didn’t care about her situation. Even though the patient has an appointment with the Dr, she has the right to have her labs. Terrible ????
The arrogant front lady on the pone wouldn't tell me if there is and availability to see the doctor unless I provide the insurance card id. She wanted insurance before he can see me. Money first? Arrogant

Once again disrespect patient time, have to Wait over 1 and 1/2 hour to be seen on a crowded waiting room, with no sanitary distance.
Worst Dr. Office I have ever been to. The staff is rude and unprofessional. No one there knows whats going on. I've been there 3 times previously and they have no idea why I'm there even though they are looking at my record on computer. When I called to make the appointment I told them it was a follow up with an ultrasound that I was told to make last time I was there. I get thrte today after taking the day off work and the rude receptionist told me I would not be able to have an ultrasound today because Dr. Shepard is not there and he is the only one who could do it but I could see the doctor anyway (of course so they can bill my insurance). They put me in a room with a rude nurse now and he asks me the same question "why are you here" Fast forward 40 minutes and I'm still sitting in the room with the door closed and the Dr. comes in and says she will do my ultrasound. (Lady in the front fought with me insisting there was no one there that could do it). Oh and BTW when I went the first time in January I made the appointment with Dr. Shepard, but when I got there they stuck me with another doctor. No explanation why. **Lastly, their social distancing policies are almost non-existent. There was 8 people in the very small waiting room at one time. They had chairs set up that were maybe 4 feet apart. You would expect better from a medical office.** Worst Dr. Office I have ever been to. The staff is rude and unprofessional.

HORRIBLE!! PLEASE AVOID!! I saw this doctor for 4 months and it was a terrible mistake. It was the first time I'd seen an endocrinologist so I wasn't sure what to expect. I am hoping sharing what I've learned and gone through will help someone else avoid my mistakes. Sheppard refused to diagnose me, told me that the thyroid is difficult to diagnose. My new doctor confirms that this is not true and that a simple ultrasound would have helped diagnose me (doctor never did one). Doctor would ask me to come in every 3 weeks just so he could look at me (if he was available, half the time I would see a different doctor at the last second because Sheppard was unavailable) and then send me home again with no new information about what was happening to me. There were a number of issues with the medication I was prescribed as well. Blood tests are not run in office, instead you have to go to a different facility to do blood work. On top of all this the office staff is TERRIBLE and I don't say that lightly. Working with the public is hard but the office staff here genuinely does NOT care about doing their job. There is always a long wait to speak to someone and most of the time they just transfer you to someone who is unavailable. They have never responded to any voicemail I have ever left, I just call back later in the week. When I was finally leaving the practice I called multiple times over a period of 2 weeks trying to get my file faxed over to my new doctor. Unanswered voicemails, being passed around from one person to another, being told they would process my request but it would take 48 hours (plus a charge of $1 per page = close to $40) only for to call back after the 48 hours had passed and go through this process all over again because the person I spoke to did nothing about it. In the end I never got my patient file from these people. AVOID!! I DON"T WANT ANYONE ELSE TO DEAL WITH THIS NIGHTMARE HORRIBLE!! PLEASE AVOID!!

I've been a patient of Dr. Sheppard for 5 years. I had to change insurance plans and they don't take my new insurance at his office. I asked their office if they could become part of my new insurance's network and they said no and said good bye. I wonder if Dr. Sheppard knows what's going on?

I scheduled an appointment about 5 weeks out and never received a reminder call. Staff was very rude on the phone asking for my diagnosis. I explained to her that I had PCOS which is literally one of the most common diagnosis a woman can have and she asked "what's that?". I assume women go there with that every day since the OBGYN right next door sent me over. I called again today because I hadn't received a reminder and felt I may had missed my appointment, the lady was super rude and seemed annoyed to even have to help me. she just started asking me questions about my insurance which they already asked me the first time and I just needed a new appointment. I don't know if the doctor is any good but the front desk lady needs a different job. It's not her problem if the doctor loses business and you can tell she doesn't care.

Dr.Shephard is great, but his staff is horrible to say the least. Noone ever answers the phone, 10+ calls and no answer throughout the day is no way to run a professional business. The lack of communication is evident in that office, the assistants do not assist. The staff’s incompetence is enough to not recommend any of my patients. Please clean house, please rebuild, Dr. Shepard deserves better.
I called 10 times before someone would even answer the phone. I was then told they would not be able to see me because I did not have insurance. I stated that I had no problem paying out of pocket for any treatment that was necessary. The person I spoke to was very rude and said that was their policy and there was nothing I could do about it. Now I see why this doctor has so many bad reviews, all basically saying the same thing. I called 10 times before someone would even answer the phone.

My experience was horrible . I made my appointment with Dr.Shephard last week for today . I told them I wanted it with him not another doctor yet when I get there in the room I wasn’t attended by him but by his assistants that her name doesn’t come out on the papers she signs for him. She was horrible. I’m telling her where it hurts and she didn’t even check that area she kept insisting that what I had was not bad. Yet I have pains . My voice goes and comes and my neck is swollen. She sent me to an ENT and said to come back in 6 months to see if it grew. Yet didn’t give any importance to my discomfort. Never again. Horrible experience. My experience was horrible .

Dr. Aguilar in this facility is amazing, how ever the staff is HORRIBLE!!!!! Please if you decided to see Dr. Shephard or Dr. Aguilar, have a lot of patients when you call the office or even go into the facilities. They even told me they do not have a manager in office they have an administrator that only goes 2 times a week.
Office staff was polite but, if your seeing Shepherd it best be the only appointment for the day. They are always behind time, the doctor just seems to be overbooked. As a professional what he said was reasonable, I mostly felt like a task. Time with patient was very short and I saw he well over an hour past my appointment.

My mother had a new patient appointment with Dr. Kenneth Shephard last week. The waiting room and patient room were clean and organized. She was called in to have her vitals taken within minutes after we arrived, and was seen shortly thereafter. She was initially seen by Jorge Ulises Aguilar, PA. PA Aguilar was professional, articulate and knowledgeable. He spoke to my mother in layman terms, listened intently and treated her with respect. He answered all of our questions and addressed our concerns. He dedicated a generous amount of time to her visit. When Dr. Shephard entered the room, his bedside manner was the same. He introduced himself and reiterated what PA Aguilar had conveyed. I wholeheartedly recommend these two providers/office. My mother had a new patient appointment with Dr. Kenneth Shephard last week.

I hate doing this because I like Dr. Shephard. He is knowledgeable and nice. Gives you options and tries to help with samples if your insurance isn't covering things and you need them. However, and this is a BIG however, I have 2 issues with the office. One, they must overbook because the wait time is always ridiculously long. Two, if you call, you can never get a live person (unless you are booking an appt., then they are more than happy to talk to you). You can leave voice messages but they never call you back. You can email, but you never get an answer. I have an issue with the insurance covering my med that the doctor has to authorize and this has been going on for 12 days now with no acknowledgement / response / update from the office to either me, or the pharmacy. This is no way to treat your patients.
Very good at communicating your health issues and providing alternative treatments with all of their positive and negatives. I never feel rushed by Dr. Shephard. He was recommended by my primary care physician and I also give my highest recommendation.
Extremely rude staff!!! Wouldn’t even give an appointment unless I had previously seen another doctor which I hadn’t apparently the “Doctor” doesn’t evaluate patients he only sees patients with existing records and even though I don’t need a PCP I was rudely told that I wasn’t permitted to see the doctor unless I had a PCP which my insurance doesn’t require! On top of everything she lied to me on the phone and told me that the gentleman I initially spoke too didn’t give me the information that I needed about old records before I would even dared calling them to make an appointment! The gentleman told me he had been working with this doctor for over 5 years! So who is lying! The “new patient” clerk was extremely rude and nasty on the phone! I’m super surprised that this doctor keeps this kind of staff! He will be broke soon with no new patients that this clerk makes sure no one gets appointments to see this doctor. So don’t even bother to call unless you like to be treated like crap
The doctor is great. The staff is horrible. And if you call them, prepare to be a long time on the phone. I've been put on hold for 45 minutes and sometimes I have to hang up because I have other things to do. If I were the doctor I would fire the staff and get a new staff that acts professionally. His staff lowers the quality of the whole office. It's a shame because the doctor is a good and knowledgeable person.
Great doctor. Takes his time to listen to his patients. He is very accurate with his diagnosis and treatments. Can't say enough good things about him. I'm seeing Dr Shephard for more than 7 years.

Staff does not answer phone calls.Stayed 2 hours on the phone.Called 5 different times and left me hanging.Last secretary that I spoke with was very rude.
Don't know the doctor other than his reviews. I called 2 different days to setup an appointment and the first time the receptionist got my call and when I say "I want to make an appointment" she puts me in hold. The first day I was in hold for 25 minutes, I couldn't hold on any longer, on the next day I called again and same lady answered again and as soon as I said " I need to make an appointment" she puts me on hold and waited over 20 minutes; Of course, I had to hang up. This is ridiculous; This Dr. with that staff will be out of business soon. He should get professional people to work for him if he wants to stay on business.

My mother who had managed her diabetes with pills and diet for decades, monitored by her primary was hospitalized at Baptist. Upon discharge she was put on steroids and sliding scale insulin administered by home health and we urgently needed to see an endocrinologist to taper off the steroids and find a long term solution for the insulin. I should add that she has cancer. I thought we got lucky to land a quick appointment with this highly educated doctor. Instead when we got there he refused to see my mother because she was receiving services from Home health. He yelled at us saying we did not bring enough information with us even though I had called the office before coming in to confirm that the primary had faxed all required information.

Dr. Sheppard have no idea of what's going on up front. The staff is unprofessional and rude. First time I called I was put on hold for 21 mins. I thought they forgot me so I hang up and called again. The girl that answered the phone didn't give me the chance to say a word and put me on hold again for around 27 mins that gave me the chance to stepped into the office and let her know in a very passive and educated manner how disrespectful she was for putting me on hold for no reason when there were no patients at the office at all. I never expected she had the balls to argue with me and she did it in a angry way letting me know she was too busy doing papers and that they were only three people at the office to do everything. when I told this lady that she will hear about me she answered to me with attitude and saying OK! DO IT!..I m still in shock and thinking how is possible this doctor is not aware of the unprofessional, disrespectful, uncaring, rude, unhelpful staff working at his office.

I recently moved to the area and was in search of a new diabetes doctor. I made several attempts to set up an appointment with Dr. Shephard, but his staff was more concerned with the medical records from my previous doctor rather than setting up an appointment. It started three weeks ago when I physically stopped by the office and asked them to double check the medical records request, and to fax the paperwork to my previous Endocrinologist for medical records. They said they'd call but didn't ask for my phone number. For three weeks I've called SEVERAL times to see if my records were received, and no one has called me back. In the meantime I'm running out of insulin, cholesterol medicine and hypertension medicine. The least the could have done was schedule an appointment so I can get refills until they receive the records from my previous Endocrinologist. That was waaaaaaay too much trouble though.

I like Dr. Shepard and I've been going there for over +10 years. Unfortunately the staff has deteriorated. I called and I was immediately put on hold. I waited about 20 minutes on the phone then I thought they had forgotten about me. So I gave them another call and I was put me on hold. When I hung up and called again they answered with a terrible attitude. I wanted my GP to send over my blood work so then I wouldn't have to draw blood again and pay money. They told me I needed them to call my GP to fax over the blood work in which I did. I tried calling the office again to confirm they had received it and they told me they did. Fast forward (week later) the day before my appointment they gave me a reminder call. I asked again if they had received my blood work and the staff member had no idea what I was talking about. I told her how that I called weeks earlier about this to get this set up and I was telling her how incompetent and rude the staff is and she literally hung up on me.

I do not know Dr. Shepard because when you call his office to make an appointment you are told to leave a message. I have left 4 messages 4 different days and have yet to get a callback. The one time someone answered they hung up when I said I wanted to make an appointment. I called right back because I thought we got disconnected but I was hung up on because I got their recording again to leave a message for an appointment.

The "Elusive" Dr. Sheppard. My first visit I was seen by a nurse practitioner. I don't have a problem with this man he was very nice and attentive. The "Elusive" dr. came in never put his hands on me and the only words he spoke were to tell me how wonderful Jardiance is that I show try it. Well I did and it turns out it is not for me. This morning I called the office to speak to the nurse, which happens to be wonderful and very professional. The girl that answered the phone was rude and in a bad mood. She should work at BK where she can scream out orders, it quickly escalated into an argument because she would not put the nurse on the phone. I was waiting on hold for several minutes. Things got ugly which I regret, I used profanity and that made matters worse, but this girl really brought the worst out of me. In any case, the staff is unprofessional and rude. This is not the first time I call and no one returns my call. The office is like a cattle ranch. You are in a pen just waiting to get herded in. It would have been nice if I could have actually had a conversation with the "Elusive" Dr. Sheppard. There are many great doctors out there. No need to put yourself through this.

This post should be seen by current and future patients. Any Doctor is more than just a title, bed manners, patient respect and an efficient front staff team are equally important. If you don't have an appointment you better bring food and gifts to the secretaries to jump ahead of established appointments. There isn't an order of appointments nor arrivals, these ladies will act on the treats you provide. Want to get disrespected, lose 3-4 hours around your appointment time and left locked in a room to then get a rush 5 minute Doctor visit? Then this is your endocrinologist group.

I was extremely surprised about the attention that Dr. Shephard gave me even more surprised about the time he spent with me - No Rush - . He listened carefully to my symptoms and answered all my questions without being concerned about the time he spent with me.

Saw him for about a year with type 2 diabetes. Always he gave general advice I could get from my primary care doctor. Then he always pushed a new medication on me each time. Not recommended.
Very rude staff. Called to make an appointment as a new patient and was left 20 minutes on hold, whoever answered the phone asked me for medical records to be sent to them. When I said I did not have them she hanged up the phone. Do not recommend this physician.
The doc prescribes me 2 meds. When I get to the pharmacy I only have one prescription. I try to call back after 1pm and there is no human to answer the call. Don't go here go to a smaller office where ppl actually answer phones.
Worst doctor I've ever been to. The office will schedule an appointment and then I show up and he's never there. Maybe he's at the gym. He's got these bimbos working the front desk and answering the phone and they are so rude. Don't ever expect to get a return call from anyone there.
Worst doctor I've ever been to. The office will schedule an appointment and then I show up and have to wait an hour to be seen.

I first saw Dr. Shepherd several years ago, as he was highly recommended. He performed a biopsy on a lump on my thyroid. I am an elderly lady now, and have been diagnosed with tumors on my parathyroid, leading me to see Dr. Shepherd again. His current office was unfamiliar to me and my 84 year old husband and I had a difficult time finding the location (Dr. Shepherd agreed and admitted that he too had difficulty finding it at first.) Having stopped to ask several people along the way, including a mail man, and having called the office to explain our delay, we finally reached the office about an hour late. The staff was not pleased and said she would have to check with the doctor, to see if he would still see me, since I was so late. I took that as rude since I had called. During that visit, the doctor advised me that little would/could be done about the tumors and ordered I have another U/S on my thyroid. I had this done and did not hear from the doctor. After some time, I called the doctor to see what the results were and was informed I would have to make an appointment and come in to talk to the doctor. Since my prior experience was less than comfortable for my husband and I, I asked to be explained the results over the phone or that they be sent to my Primary Doctor. He instead wrote my Primary a note saying I would not be back to his office. (I'll leave it at that). Now, the thyroid hormone levels are more than double with a blood test on my Thyroid and my Primary referred me back to Dr. Shepherd for his expertise. I was refused an appointment and hence was referred to another doctor. Needless to say, I am not happy with this experience. I first saw Dr. Shepherd several years ago, as he was highly recommended.

Dr. Shephard is the best endocrinologist. I gotta thank him for my wife's life. His nurse is the most caring and loving person. Always a pleasure seeing them.
Dr. Shephard is a wonderful doctor. Very caring about his patients. The staff is very nice and the nurse is just amazing. The doctor takes his time to explain every diagnosis and procedure as well as prognosis. Just glad i found him and that he is the one taking care of my health.
I was referred by my primary care physician Dr. Shephard was highly recommended. I had to send my records prior to scheduling an appointment which makes sense so that I didn’t have to wait longer while they gathered my results. The staff was friendly and helpful. The doctor was informative and answered all of my questions. Overall I had a great experience and will be letting my primary physician know.

I am not really sure about Dr. Shephard's decisions and treatment methods but I can say for a fact that his staff has zero people skills:. Mean, indifferent, unprofessional and nasty. I have experienced being hung up to at least twice. If you need and Endocrinologist think twice; remember, you have to go through his staff first......

I've been seeing Dr Sheppard for years for my thyroids and diabetes he is an excellent and caring understanding physician he takes his time and goes out of his way to make sure I stay on track...
This is an excellent doctor. Great bedside manners. Takes his time to listen to his patients He is very accurate with his diagnosis and treatments. Can't say enough good things about him. It's a shame his front office staff makes people walk away. The phones are never answered. In order to schedule an appointment you actually have to go in person. If documents are faxed they never receive them. I'm sure the doctor doesn't really know what's happening in the front. Its really a shame
