"My first impression of Dr. Shikora was a great one! He was very warm, caring and understanding. He did not go too fast when explaining the surgery process and made sure I understood everything.
My impression only changed for the better over time. The day of surgery he greeted me with a big smile and he stopped by my room 3 times post surgery.
The office staff at Tufts is AMAZING. Louise is awesome - Meghan is wonderful and Dr. Greenberg is great!
There is nothing I don't like about him.
Future patients should know that they are in the BEST of hands when Dr. Shikora is their surgeon. He is the Chief of Bariatric & General Surgery for Tufts and is the BEST in his field.
He emphasizes aftercare like you wouldn't believe - afterall it is THE most important part of this surgery journey.
Yes, the aftercare program is very structured. You have lifelong follow up appts. with your nutritionist, surgeon, psychologist and medical doctor.
Yes, Dr. Shikora fully explained all surgery risks.
I would rate Dr. Shikora a 100 out of 10!
Dr. Shikora's surgical competence is out of this world and his bedside manner is too."
