"Dr. Shikora was very professional, thorough, warm and caring in our initial consult. He took the time to explain the procedure and answer all our questions. His office staff has always made me feel that my questions deserved a thoughtful, reassuring response. Everyone at the Weight and Wellness Center at Tufts Medical Center is top notch! They are concerned about my total well-being, and I have experienced only the best medical, psychological and nutritional care since I met them in the April 2009. Their program is truly a holistic one that emphasizes the fact that this upcoming surgery is simply a tool towards becoming a healthier, more active adult, and emphasizes the importance of the after-care and follow-up. I have attended some of their monthly support group meetings pre-op and plan to continue post operatively. I am so priveleged to have this chance for a new beginning!"
