I have to say Dr. Shen was fantastic. He seems very quite but will answer all questions that you ask him. He takes a good pause between what he is saying to make sure that you don't have any of those questions that pop into your head or maybe afraid to ask. At the bedside he is in and out real quick, but does make sure to answer anything that you need. I can say that I didn't need much pain meds after and all wounds healed fast and clean.
The WLS team is great in there support before, during and after the surgery. I give Dr. Shen two thumbs up.
DR. ROY SHEN IS A VERY GOOD SURGEON IN MY OPINION. I HAD NO PAIN FROM THE LAP RNY HE PERFORMED ON ME. I DID NOT REQUIRE ANY PAIN MEDICATION AT ALL. HE CAME TO CHECK ON ME THE NIGHT I HAD THE SURGERY TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS OK. HE IS A QUIET MAN ,BUT HE LETS YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT ALL, FEEL FREE TO DISCUSS THESE ISSUES WITH HIM. ALSO HIS STAFF VERY NICE PEOPLE AND VERY CARING. HIS STAFF WAS ALWAYS AROUND TO ASK IF YOU NEED ANYTHING.
Very mild mannered, soft spoken and professional. Answered all my questions, made me feel comfortable with him and his skills. His office staff was GREAT! Very supportive and helpful! I loved everything about him and the program! Very structured aftercare program--- which was very important to me. I need structure to make sure I am on track.
I would absolutely reccomend Dr. Shen to anyone thinking of this surgery.
I am still going thru the usual preops prior to getting a surgical date BUT I have found that the involvement of Dr. Shen and Dr. Jiser in Informational meeting, Support groups, etc. has been impressive.
He presents as a very knowledgeable physician.. with much experience performing lap band surgery.
I find him pleasant and easy to talk to as well as leaving me with a feeling that I was not rushed and could utilize his time to ask any questions i needed.
The entire medical staff at SMMC has been superb..from lab, to xray, to reception, as well as attendance at support groups for example anethesia, nursing..
as well as Dr. Shen's weight management team!
I reccomend highly Dr. Shen and the Entire Weight Loss Team at SMMC
Very young. Very informative(laymans terms).
My respect for Dr. Shen only grew after the surgery.
The Surgical Weightloss Team at SMMC is First Rate!
He is a surgeon...very, very serious.
Aftercare is stressed at every meeting!
Excellent aftercare programs!
Dr. Shen and his staff were all very forthcoming about the risks during and after surgery.
1-10....I would rate him 8-9.
Great surgeon, Bed side mannner not bad but not great.
I met with Dr. Shen at my innitial appointment. I liked how he was willing to answer any and all of mine and my husband's questions regarding the procedure and after effects. Even when we were done speaking with him he took the time to ask if we had all our questions answered. Neither my husband or myself felt rushed out the door during our time with him. He was very sincere and straight forward and I felt comfortable with him right away.
