What an amazing place with amazing staff. I want to give a big shout out to Angie Roby and the amazing care she gave my mother. Don’t get me wrong, EVERYONE did an amazing job and loved my mother like their own, but today I want to personally thank Angie for everything she did. Thank you for loving my mom!

I was really worried about leaving my father in the care of someone else, but Shepherd Premier is an absolute amazing place. They’re very caring and supportive. The employees go above and beyond to make everyone feel loved. I love how they do things with the residents daily and really love that they take people on little trips. Plus, my dad got to keep his cat! I highly recommend Shepherd Premier.
