I had a great experience with Dr. Sheppard. He is kind and compassionate. He also has a great team too. He took sometime to explain the procedure to me and he said some blessings before surgery and that made me more confident and Show moreassured that all will be well. Thank you Dr. Sheppard and team!
Staff is outstanding and a lot of fun. Dr Sheppard is great outstanding bedside manner. Very happy he will be doing the surgery.
Ray Sheppard Jr., MD, has never been able to dunk a basketball and he lacks any musical aptitude, but he was blessed with a mind and talent for surgery. This, coupled with his compassionate approach to every patient who walks through his doors in Madison and Huntsville, Alabama, makes him an excellent choice for general surgery.
After graduating magna cum laude with a degree in physics from Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Dr. Sheppard went on to earn his medical degree from the University of Alabama (UAB) in Birmingham.
Dr. Sheppard completed his surgical training at the prestigious DeBakey Department of Surgery at the Baylor School of Medicine in Houston, where he was fortunate to be mentored by world-class surgeons at the renowned Ben Taub Trauma Center, as well as the famous MD Anderson Cancer Center.
During his education and training, Dr. Sheppard served as a teaching assistant both in the physics department at Georgia Tech and the anatomy department at UAB. While at Baylor, he was recognized with the Outstanding Chief Surgical Resident Award for his exemplary teaching and leadership. Today he continues as an associate professor for the Huntsville campus of the UAB Medical School.
Through his extensive training, Dr. Sheppard developed remarkable skills that allow him to handle the most complex surgical problems, as well as routine general surgical cases.

I have experienced a very personable staff during each office visit.
Very helpful informative and squeezed me in for appointment courteous smiley and welcoming faces was very nice thank you !
UPDATE: I am 4 weeks post op and wanted to provide an updated review. I could not be more pleased with the care I have received from Dr. Sheppard and his staff!! His bedside manner is top notch. He asked if he could pray with me before my surgery. I felt very blessed to have a surgeon who cared enough to pray with me. His prayer was so meaningful. He also gave God the credit for a successful surgery the next day when he visited me in the hospital. His nurse Carla was very responsive and so helpful with my short term disability paperwork and pulling my drain tubes. I will most certainly continue to recommend Dr. Sheppard to family and friends!!! INITIAL REVIEW: I was amazed at Dr. Sheppard's thoughtfulness and the care he took to explain in easy to understand details about my upcoming surgery. I didn't feel rushed and was given the time needed for me to address my questions and concerns. I have already recommended Dr. Sheppard to others. His office staff is just as wonderful and caring.
Dr Sheppard listens to what you’re saying and doesn’t rush you out of the office like some places do. Thank you Dr Sheppard for being kind and patient with us and answering our questions.
Very nice experience. Dr. Sheppard and all the staff made us feel as if we had been patients with them for years. Very friendly. I would highly recommend Dr. Sheppard.

Excellent Totally listened to me. Explained everything.
Was totally pleasedhe did great job anf follow up
I think he’s the best surgeon there is. He’s very knowledgeable and explains everything so I understand it. He’s takes time to listen and is concerned with your condition. But the best ever is that he prays with you before your surgery. To me that’s very comforting
Best surgeon in Huntsville! A really caring Doctor that does excellent work.
Doc Sheppard is the man to fix a painful hernia like I had. He’s a great person and doctor. He does a great job in taking care of his patients. I feel so much better after having hernia repair surgery!
Dr.Sheppard was great I would highly recommend him to anyone. He also has prayer with you before surgery, that lets you know what kind of man he is.
Very thorough and patient focused.
Very nice and friendly

Dr. Sheppard is the BEST!!! If I could give him a page full of stars I would, along with his staff! He has the most incredible bedside manners, he’s a Christian gentleman who’s compassionate, confident empathetic, as well as reassuring. Dr. Sheppard is extremely knowledgeable and confident in his abilities. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and thoroughly. He makes you feel at ease and answers all your questions. I will always recommend him! Thank you Dr. Sheppard!
Good and informative visit
Very pleasant staff and I appreciate the kindness and concerned they showed
Great doctor and staff!!!!!
A very professional and caring physician and staff
Physician, nurse, scheduler, and ladies at the front desk were all very personable and helpful. Dr. Sheppard explained everything well and to my understanding, and answered all questions I had. The scheduler told me that Dr. Sheppard would pray with me and over me before the surgery if I so desired. Being a Christian and a minister’s wife, I was delighted by this, and will welcome his prayer.
