Surgeon Testimonial

Mark A. Shina M.D.
10/5/06 I just realized that its been 2 yrs today since my seminar with Dr Shina. What an amazing 2 years its been. If u r looking for a surgeon and its in any way possible for u to travel to Louisville Ky, I highly recommend Dr Shina. He is just one of the best there is. In all the times I've seen Dr Shina he has been patient, he sits down and talks to me at each visit (check up), he never rushes me, or acts like he's in hurry. The times that I've had to call him after hours he's always called me right back and been very nice and understanding. Although the last night I had to call him could have been avoided if I had thought about it long enough but he was still nice to me and that was one time he shouldn't have been. It was something silly and I got scared but he was still very polite when he called back, it ended up being nothing. I would, and do on a regular basis, recommend Dr Shina to anyone researching this surgery. He and his staff are just the best.

10/5/04 My husband, Adam, and I loved Dr Shina. Well, I have only met him once, but I can't see my impression changing. The office staff today was wonderful. We liked everything about him. He is a wonderful surgeon, I haven't had surgery yet, but just by my first impression I can tell that he is one of the BEST. He doesn't sugar coat anything or pull any punches. We really liked him. Aftercare to him is a top priority and very important. Yes, he does. Yes, he did. So far on a scale from 1 to 10, I would give him and staff a 20. Surgical competence is the most important thing to me, but Dr Shina seems to have that plus a great attitude. I look forward to future visits with him.

We're still trying after his vasectomy reversal.  Our MD said it could take up to 6-12 months for his equipment to start working again.  It'll happen if its God's will.  He has another SA (semen analysis) done the end of June. We'll see and go from there.  On a happier note the weather has been gorgeous and I've planted 11 rose bushes and 2 trees today....I love spring! I love working in our garden.  We've got to get the ground broke so we're ready to plant soon.  Have a good night everyone!
