Patient Reviews
Oct 26, 2024
Dr. Shaver is an exceptional surgeon. I’ve had two surgeries this year with him. The first was to put my colon back together after an emergency surgery a few months earlier. He was voice of reason on not rushing the surgery to ensure the best outcome. His confidence and professionalism made me feel comfortable and calmed any fears I had going into the operation. I’m so thankful to him, he gave me my quality of life back. I then needed a second outpatient surgery recently for an incisional umbilical hernia. I had no concerns prior to my surgery knowing he was my surgeon again. Within a few days I was feeling like myself with minimal pain and everything looks great. I highly recommend Dr. Shaver to anyone needing surgery. He is kind, patient, thorough and professional throughout the whole process. His office staff and nurses are all great and caring as well.
