Theodore W Shea, MD

Grandaugter had the worst experience with her delivery with this Dr. Very unattentive, bad bedside manner, epidural did not work, waited too long to come into delivery, she tore real bad, and then he swore at her and almost made her cry, I would never reccomend this doctor for a delivery. VERY INSENSITIVE and does not seem to respect the feelings of his patient

I have been a patient at Tehama Women’s Health for over 10 years. I have seen Dr. Shea several times and he has always been very short and rude to say the least, which is why I normally see Pam or Sally. However, this time I waited 2 weeks to specifically see Dr. Shea because I had some serious concerns and wanted a Dr.‘s opinion. As soon as he entered the room I could tell I was wasting my time. I proceeded to try and explain why I was there and inform him that I had had some recent abnormal test results. He just gave me a blank stare and little to no explanation or opinion as a medical Dr. At that point I didn’t know what else to say. He actually said to me very rudely «Well you scheduled the appointment didn’t you?» And I said «Yes. I was hoping to get some answers from a Dr. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. That’s why I’m here. You are supposed to be the Dr.» He then offered all he could do was examine me but at that point it was evident he could care less and had been so unprofessional that I said No thanks. He then walked me out to the front and sarcastically asked if I would like him to forward a note on this visit to my primary Dr. My response to him «and say what? That you didn’t do a single thing for me?!» I will never step foot into Dr. Shea’s office again. As a patient I am paying Dr. Shea for his time and professional opinion. I believe that should include respect and not to be spoken to condescendingly. If he dislikes his job that much he needs to retire!

Recently had laser facial hair removal done and Dr. Shea was patient and understanding. He proceeded slowly and gave me satisfying results. The entire procedure wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. Not to mention the price! Incredible results at an affordable rate!!! Thank you :)
