Dr Shibata is truly the best. He is confident is his area of expertise. He has incredible bed side manner. His team is excellent. Cancer is very hard physically and emotionally Shibata and his team have walked me through each step of my journey. They have taken the time to meet and discuss every aspect of my process. We need more Doctors like Shibata!

Dr Shibata found that I had a very complicated tumor. A very rare tumor in colon. He saved my life!!! I will always trust his decisions in my health care. Thank you Dr Shibata.

Dr Shibata has been my surgeon fr many years, from his days in Boston, to Moffitt Cancer Center. I have traveled across the country to have him perform cancer surgeries over the years and highly recommend him to anyone that needs an excellent surgeon for a complex case. He has amazing bedside manner, is a wonderful person to talk to about complex cases as he breaks everything down for patients to understand easily. He is greatly missed since he has gone to TN.

Dr Shibata is a very caring and excellent doctor. I would recommend him to everyone needing his services. I may not be here today if it wasn't for him.

Dr. Shibata was highly recommended to me and my first impression was favorable. However, I needed to have major surgery and, since I was putting my life in his hands, I had to feel complete trust not only in his ability but also in his judgment about what was best for me during and after surgery. He made me believe I could safely give him my complete trust without reservation. He saved my life and made it possible for me to continue living a satisfactorily normal life. To me, he is Dr. Wonderful and will always have my respect for the Dr. and person he is and my gratitude.

I have had rectal cancer for 3+ years. We travel from Atlanta, GA to Tampa, FL because we are confident that Dr. Shibata and Moffitt Cancer Center will provide me with the best care available. He explains everything in layman's terms and takes as much time as necessary to answer questions. Dr. Shibata even answers emails. I would highly recommend Dr. Shibata and his staff to anyone!
