- June 30, 2018I soon learned I was not the only one who thinks she is the greatest. The staff in her office and in the hospital share my opinion.
- June 27, 2018I wasn't sure what to expect since I regularly go to Salisbury Orthopedics. Dr. Shepherd quickly made me feel at ease. There was no doubt in my mind that she knew what she was doing and had my best interest at heart.
- June 26, 2018recommend her
- June 16, 2018Dr. Shephard was very caring and compassionate during a time I was very nervous. I had to have surgery on my ankle that same day and a lot was happening very fast. She was very informative and professional and put me at ease. She answered all my questions and I never felt dismissed. I was given excellent care!
- May 30, 2018good experience
- May 26, 2018Dr. Shepard is an excellent doctor. She was recommended to me by a friend. She did a surgical procedure on him that went very we!!.
- May 26, 2018After seeing *Dr. Shepherd felt assured she would provide me with excellent treatment and follow up wit my problem.
- May 13, 2018I was impressed with Dr. Shepherd.
- May 12, 2018Dr. Shepherd was very concerned about all my situations
- May 9, 2018they are the best
- May 7, 2018Dr. Shepard provided top tier service and is perhaps the best orthopedic doctor I have ever seen, and I've seen many. Her attention and genuine concern for my health were second to none and provide a superior example of the best Wake med has to offer. I am grateful to both her and the staff of Lexington orthopedics.

- January 10, 2018DR. Shepherd is amazing. I will never let another surgeon touch my shoulders. She is awesome at what she does. and very much caring. She always let's me know what to expect and uses medical terms then tells me what that term means.
- December 22, 2017None bad.
- December 19, 2017I've had no bad experiences with my provider.
- November 21, 2017This caregiver was excellent in explaining the options and that attempt to repair it (torn rotator cuff) rather than just doing a shoulder replacement. In Florida, 2 years ago, the specialist just wanted to replace the shoulder!
- November 14, 2017Care provider was very professional, yet very friendly and concerned about how I was doing and calling her if I had any future problems or concerns. She is a wonderful doctor.

- September 19, 2017Dr Shepherd really shows that she cares about concerns you have about your visit with her. She takes the time to explain your condition to you and gives you options. There should be more doctors like her. You don't feel like you're just a number.
