Dr. Shawn Garber Patients?

Hi Lisa I just had my surgery on 1/3/2006 at St Catherines Dr Braithwaite did it. He is absolute the best surgeon. Everything went great with me no promblems at all. I really had no pain just very nauseau for all the pain meds they were giving me. As soon as they took my epidural out I was fine. I came home on thursday afternoon my husband went back to work on friday I didnt need him I had no pain. He is a real good doctor. Here's there # 631-265-7000 if you want to call him. They are in Smithtown. He works at the St Catherines Medical center right next to the hospital . I had lap rny just 5 little holes. Michele

Hi Lisa, I am also a patient of Dr. Garber and cannot say enough good things about him as well as his entire staff. I would highly recommend him. I have seen him at 2 out of 3 post-op appointments and he is always willing to take the time to answer any and all questions. Hope this helps. Good Luck, Stacy

YES!! Hello!! I am 5 mos out from surgery and no complications I looked and spoke with 3 surgeons before I settled on Dr Garber. Both Dr Garber and hot Dr Holover are pedicured surgeons and set the gold standard for this procedure. I absolutely love them both. The staff may appear a little overwhelmed at times, but they never lose sight of who you are and whenever I call they know me. When Dr Garber told me 'we will take good care of you" he meant it. I went into the surgery calm, clear minded and expecting a good outcome. The nursing staff is exceptional and pays a lot of attention to you. And as Anna Stossel, the nurse coordinator will tell you- you will become sleep deprived during your stay-as they will have you up and walking every 2-3 hours. His website is www.stopobesityforlife.com And you will find our profiles on there as well. Let me know if you need help or have any questions. Hugs Donna
