Surgeon Testimonial

Mark A. Shina, M.D.
Dr. Shina strikes me as a very competent surgeon. He is very direct and "to the point" He wants me to loose a significant amount of weight before he does the surgery, I suppose to improve my health, and to see if I am serious.
UPDATE AFTER SURGERY: Dr. Shina is a VERY competent surgeon. I am very impressed with his skills. He is conservative and requires you to stick to his protocol. But, I have had NO complications, no trouble keeping anything down, and I feel it is due following his instructions closely. I highly recommend Dr. Shina.

Happy Anniversary. How are thing's going for you now? I really find the postings of experiences by post-ops really helplful. I'm hoping to have the surgery as soon as I am approved; insurance paperwork was filed Friday. I'd really appreciate hearing your experience, now that you've had an Anniversary. Thanks.

I met Holly when we both went for consultation on 12/7/99. We were instant friends, and now she is going to be my angel when I have my surgery 8/31/00. She is doing so amazingly well, she's my inspiration! Love ya woman! :-)

Holly, hope you are healing well, and starting your journey on the "other side. I am scheduled for RNY in St. Louis on the 28th of April. When you feel up to it, would you be interested in a support group in our area? I am from Ft. Branch and there seem to be so few of us in the area. Best of luck and God bless. Barbara Trapp
