Dr Catherine Schaefer

I am a patient of Dr. Schaefer's for the past year and I am so glad I found her. I have 3 chronic illnesses and have to visit the doctors on a regular basis. Out of all the family care physicians, she is by far the best one I have had. She listens to your concerns and makes sure to give you the best care she can. She also takes her time talking to you and looks over all of your past medical records to insure the best care and or medication for you, not just a temporary band-aid. I have a lot of medical history and she makes sure I am taken care of in all aspects. Her nurses are always nice. The practice actually makes you feel like your one of them. Ive never seen a better team on the beach by far. I highly recommend her and her practice in Socastee.

I just love Dr Schaefer, she is nice and caring and listens to you. She has found things wrong with me that my Dr in Tennessee couldn't find. She is a sweetheart and very caring and understandable.. She is just an awesome Dr to have..

I've been a patient of Dr Schaefer for almost a year now and I've had enough! Extremely rude unprofessional receptionist and staff. Michelle, a nurse at this practice, runs this place. Michelle is so hateful and always smarts off at all the patients. It's not just me either. Many other patient's have told me that Michelle treats them like trash. She's so rude, snippy and will humiliate and belittle you. This is one nurse you don't want to hear call you back. She's been reported to Dr Schaefer many, many times by numerous patients for her rude , hateful ways, but Dr Schaefer refuses to do anything about it. I believe Dr Schaefer is affraid of Michelle or there is something going on between them. Dr Schaefer never calls your medications in corerrctly. She'll also just give you a 30 day supply with No Refills. You have to come back each month for your medication. She orders lab work and blood to be drawn everytime you come in . She's very money hungry and will milk your insurance for as much as posibIe. If you're looking for a good family practice to go to, don't make the mistake and go here. You'll be very sorry you did.

Seems like she could be a good doctor but she doesn't ask enough questions, doesn't let you ask questions and ends the exam and walks out abruptly while you are expecting her to come back. Yes, Dr. Schaefer, i had more questions.

She listens to me and trusts my own instinct as well. I had my dog in my running car and she told me to go bring my dog inside with me.
