Dr. Vafa Shayani-St. James

I have scheduled by surgery for Jan 29th, 2012. Dr. Shayani and his team at St. James have been nothing but helpful and kind!! They made sure I made it to this point and was approved by my insurance. Dr. Shayani is so personable, by giving out his personal e-mail and cell phone number in case I have any questions at any time. His success rate is amazing and he even teaches this surgical procedure to other physicians in the area. I can't wait to have my surgery and start a whole new life!! I would recommend Dr. Shayani and his team to the fullest!!

I just used him in August...

I think I like him, but he had a bit of a "dry" sense of humor that sometimes comes across as callous.

He did a great surgery though!

I think its just a bad, dry sense of humor. lol. I don't think its callous at all. But to each their own. It looks like you are losing great though! I can't wait to start seeing some results! Starting to get nervous as hell but i'll get through it! Keep up the good work and congrats on your loss!! :)

Keep up the good work and congrats on your loss!! :)
