"I loved Dr. Shina from the first sentance out of his mouth!! He is honest about the procedure and the requirements to be successful in your weight loss. He was truthful when telling us about the pain, the dumping, and all the other problems associated. He told us the mortality rates and made us think long and hard about our choice for the surgery. The office staff has been helpful. Always friendly when you call and they help you as much as they can. I would reccomend Dr. Shina to anyone he is great .. so far ;)"
