Nicole Ottens, DO
Emergency Medicine SBL Emergency Department You get the medicine you need to keep yourself professionally challenged and on top of your game. I feel a sense of family among my co-workers. We trust each other. My husband and I were looking for a quiet, safe place to put down roots and raise our family and we found that here. |

Abdur Shakir, MD
Oncology SBL Regional Cancer Center As soon as I got here, I realized I had the freedom to practice medicine the way I wanted to and in the best interest of my patients. As an employed physician, billing, staffing and insurance issues are taken care of, so I can focus on taking care of patients. When I drive home for the day I reflect back on how thankful I am for my staff, colleges and patients. |

Orthopedic Surgery SBL Orthopedics & Sports Medicine I'm from this area, so my wife and I wanted to raise our family here. The schools, both public and private are excellent. SBL is a regional health system. We have patients coming from 50+ miles away for our services and that makes you feel good, knowing that people value you and see SBL as a place to come to. |
