Heywood Surgical Associates Hospital

I am very confidant in the skills of Dr. Shore and I feel she is very conservative and offers fantastic support. rnRebecca Shore is very easy to speak with,has a great bedside manner. She is honest and upfront and very caring. She came to see me right before teh surgery and came to my hospital room each day that I was there to ask how I felt. I have an appointment to see her for one week after my surgery. She was fantastic!!

I first saw Dr. Shen at the info session in May of 2007 and I immediately got good vibes from him because he did the surgery presentation and answered questions and what most stuck out for me and my husband and mother that went with me to this session was that another WL client asked a question and the other surgeon that was in the presentation looked over to Dr. Shen so that he could respond. I instantly felt that he new his stuff and that he was better prepared than the other doctors. rnrnHe normally does not talk much unless asked and I did try to make him laugh a couple of times and I succeeded. rnrnHe knows his stuff and he makes sure to answer any and all questions that you have. Including the \"has anyone died question\". He's very honest with his answers. rnrnI believe in prayer and I really prayed to God that I had found the right doctor and WLS program. rnNot to mention the fact that my mother and father put my surgery and all the results in countless prayer circles in Florida, Massachusetts and Dominican Republic, so I felt at peace with my decision.rnrnI absolutely love the offices and the team at the Lowell General Hospital Bariatric Program: from the staff who is very nice and helpful, to the chairs which are very large so you don't feel out of place. Even the toilets in the restrooms are extra large so anyone can fit comfortably. rnrnSometimes you do have to wait a while to see the doctor but I always take a magazine or book to read to make sure I'm entertained and I rather have it this it way, since it insures me that Dr. Shen takes his time during surgery and with his visits.rnrnThe entire program and the paperwork you sign is centered around support groups before and after the surgery and continued visits with the team for the next 5 years. THis is to insure that you get the best out of the program. rnrnI would definately recommend this program, doctor and team to anyone. rnrn

I would recommend Emerson Hospital to anyone, the staff there are incredible. My first appointment with Dr. Shore was informative and comfortable. I am really looking forward to this incredible tool they are able to offer me.rnrnpost surgery:rnamazing work-she walks in and glows with warmth, lets you know its all gonna be okay, she has a great team that works with her and the work performed is top notch! i would recommend her team to everyone around this area.

Dr. Shore always treated me with respect. She talked to me about any questions or concerns that I had involving my progress and my surgery. She performed my RNY on July 23 and it went wonderful. Her aftercare in the hospital was always pleasant and never felt rushed. rnrnEven though I am one of the larger patients, I always felt comfortable with her. She even took the extra step to have me on a anti-clotting shot for a week after my surgery because she knew my mobility level would be lowered.

Dr. Shore is wonderful! She really knows what she's doing. She is very quiet and friendly and makes sure she answers all of you questions. I spent so much time researching this surgery and the surgeons that i really did not have many questions going in. I feel like my main relationship is with her staff,and not so much Dr. Shore, but that's ok with me. I feel that she did a wonderful job on my surgery. and that's all I could ask for.

My surgeon has been great shes very kind right away i liked her she doesn't take chances she has an exellent bed side mannerrni never feel sushed when i have an appt. he office staff is awsome they have been a great help during every stage. I highly reccomend this office and surgeon

Roy Shen is a very quiet and soft spoken man who is extremely knowledgable about bariatric surgery. He was very patient with my questions and very thorough in his explanations, ensuring that I understood every piece of every process. The morning of surgery he really tried to put me at ease and while he maintained his professionalism at all times, I started to see a more \"personal\" side to him- he made me feel like he personally cared (I wasn't just a patient to 'work on'). Post operatively his continued support, encouragement and praise made me feel like I was doing really well (I'm down over 100 lbs in 10 months so I guess I'm doing great). I would highly recommend Roy Shen as a bariatric surgeon to anyone!!

Dr. Shore was great! I would reccomend her highly.

Dr. Shore seemed very confident in her work when I met her.

First impression, I thought she was someone who worked in the center, only after reading her ID badge I realized she was the doctor! She is very young looking, but very nice and had a great bedside manner. She explained the process, how long I would be in the hospital and what I should expect post-op.

My first impression was that she was new and the other surgeons in her practice had been doing it for a long time. After the first meet and greet we broke the ice and she is a great person. I just love the whole weight management clinic at Saints Memorial all the staff is wonderful!! I would rate my surgeon and staff a 10.
