Mark A. Shina M.D. I had met Dr. Shina over two years ago, when I was pursuing the lapband. Now that I am pursuing the lap gastric bypass, I chose him again to be my perspective surgeon. He was just as thorough and kind this time around as the last time. He really knows the subject of bariatric surgery well and can explain it in a way that anyone could understand. He explains especially thoroughly about pulminary embolisms. His office staff was wonderful and took their time with all my paperwork. He was so caring in making sure that my husband and I had all our questions answered and told us to just call his office any time if we thought of anymore questions for him.
I just spoke with
Kathy, she sounds
like a super sweet
lady. She said she
was feeling great,
she was kind of
hoarse from the tube
being down her
throat durning
surgery, but other
than that was
feeling good. Thank
u all for your kind
thoughts and
prayers.

New Year and feeling great! 12 Jan 07 - I am almost three months out from my lap gastric bypass surgery and have lost about 54 lbs. I feel so much better than before. This surgery has been a godsend! I went to my internist this week and all my levels were fine and my cholestrol was great!! He is talking about taking me off my blood pressure medicine soon (which I have taken for 25 years! Life is great and I am always anxious to weigh!!
