A wonderful, well educated, caring Doctor. I first met Dr. Shemesh when I had a huge gallbladder issue, he operated on me and I instantly felt better. I have since had 4 bouts of Diverticulitis and he has attended to me each time. He is very careful not to rush surgery and attended to me with antibiotics, IV care, and diet. He has waited until I was strong and had no swelling that would cause any additional harm to my body. He has suggested elective surgery so I will not have any more attacks. He has treated me as an intelli... read more

Dr. Shemesh removed my gall bladder, which required an incision, and couldn't be done by laparoscope because I can't tolerate surgical staples. He was a caring surgeon, and has a great bedside manner. I highly recommend him. In fact, he's done surgery for some of my friends and they feel the same way.

My Mom and I had gone to see Dr Shemesh after feeling we weren’t getting the right answers about my Mom’s issues.. He was such a patient listener and he took plenty of time to go over and explained things to us. He called himself with my Mom’s results and explained things thoroughly. I would recommend anyone looking for a kind, caring Dr, look no further, call Dr Shemesh office.. And to add the icing on the cake, his staff was so helpful and caring also. Shelly really went the extra mile for my Mom.. Thank you Dr Shemesh and... read more

My patient visit with this Dr was awful.. My patient has dementia and is not capable of making her own decisions but on the alternate she knows her pain he said she did not have hemorrhoids WHICH SHE DID!! He also said he thinks she's in so many words faking her pain.. Because there's no ?evident pain? so he ordered for her to be unpacked by a home health company because he thinks she's constipated..Which is by the way after I told him my patient had been having bowel movements.very disappointed

Dr Shemesh has always been able to help me with my problems. He is very caring, understanding , easy to talk to. He is an awesome Dr and I am so glad I found him a few yrs ago when I really needed a Colorectal Dr.

My husband has been a patient of Dr. Shemesh for several years. He diagnosed his ulcerative colitis condition when other doctors couldn't. And explains everything in a manner that we can understand. He is a kind and caring man and he himself actually calls with results of all tests. We would highly recommend Dr. Shemesh.

I was referred to Dr. Shemesh by my primary doctor for Hemorrhoids treatment 6 years ago and he made small office procedures to eliminate some internal ones. Last May I decided to have a full surgery to eliminate all problems.The surgery last around 2.5 hours including preparation + surgery + recovery and discharge. The recovery period at home is not easy, but it was a success. I had some discomfort for 3 months. Thanks to him, and I recommend to anyone that needs surgery procedures.

I was referred to Dr. Shemesh by my primary doctor and I was very happy with him. He is an excellent doctor and surgeon. His bedside matter was wonderful and his care and concern for my well being was great. After my procedure for umbilical hernia while in recovery I developed A- Fib and he recommended an over night stay in the hospital for observation. I am very happy I went to Dr. Shemesh and I recommend him to anyone that needs a surgeon.
