Patient Reviews
Jun 24, 2024
This past fall I developed UC postpartum and spent over a month in the hospital. During my stay GI tried meds but they didn't work. Dr. Shakamuri checked in with me daily to get to know me and my case. I eventually needed surgery to remove my colon. He did an amazing job with the surgery and putting up with me while I was in a horrible headspace from being in the hospital so long. This past weekend we made my ileostomy permanent and he did a great job again with the surgery. He has great bedside manner, is very personable and very knowledgeable. I wouldn't have wanted to go through this experience with any other doctor.
