Bruce Schirmer
"Dr. Schirmer is a kind, compassionate, caring individual. His bedside manner both in his office and in the hospital were wonderful. I had a complication which required a second surgery to correct and he appologized to me and my husband for the necessity of the second surgery and that I had to go through with that. He never apprears to be in a hurry to leave and get to his next patient, and will take as much time with each patient as is necessary. He has about 20 years experience doing laproscopic surgery and was a pioneer of laproscopic surgery in his geographic area. He takes the time to explain all the risks involved and makes sure the patient understands everything he/she needs to know. My husband accompanied me to my pre-op visit when the surgery date was set and he asked my husband if he had any questions about the proceedure, etc. I think he is a wonderful doctor and highly recommend him to anyone who is considering having this surgery in the Charlottesville, VA area. As far as aftercare, he has a nutritionist on staff to work with patients both pre and post-op. He schedules regular post-op checkups including blood work and faxes a copy of all my records to my PCP."
