"Dr. Shope is awesome! He is friendly, funny, and most of all, accomplished and knowledgeable. He is never in a hurry or a rush to see other patients when I have an appointment and has been extremely helpful in my weight loss journey. I'm am extremely pleased with the outcome of my surgery. I have had no pain, no nausea, and no vomiting. rnrnAfter care is extremely important to him, as he sees patients reguarly about every 6 weeks. rnrnPrior to surgery, the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center required a 6 month nutritional, dietary, and weight loss program. This facility's requirements before surgery provided me with the knowledge I needed before having the LAP Band procedure. I had very few questions before my surgery date of July 18, 2008.rnrnWithout reservation, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Timothy Shope as a bariatric surgeon, specifically for laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding."
