Professional, efficient and attentive. I was able to get my surgery scheduled for a week from my initial visit. Dr. Shehebar responded to my many emails post surgery answering every question about my recovery. I was recommended to his office and would recommend him to anyone seeking colon and rectal surgery.

The only thing I didn’t like from the Hospital is when you are in rest come a Dr. Calling Alexander treating you like an inmate. Bothering every time you are at the Hospital he is not my Dr. ??
