Are you ready to make life-changing, and possibly life-saving, decisions for your improved health? I don't have the words to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Shieh and his staff. They went out of the way to patiently educate and explain every detail of my journey~ from the lifestyle change, to new eating habits, pre-surgery, post-surgery, to curing me of my numerous pains and ReSetting my body to function properly.
Many people suffer from obesity-significant excess total body fat due to diet, metabolism, and exercise imbalances. It's a chronic disease that afflicts more than 60 million Americans. That's why more and more people are turning to medical methods like weight-loss surgery, also called obesity surgery or bariatric surgery.
Also called gastric sleeve surgery, sleeve gastrectomy is the most common weight-loss surgery performed by our bariatric surgeons in the Naples-Fort Myers, Florida area. This surgical weight-loss procedure involves detaching a portion of the stomach, leaving only a small banana-shaped "sleeve" and also reduces the hunger hormone, Grehlin.
Also known as the Roux-en-Y, gastric bypass is a weight-loss surgical procedure that involves stapling the stomach to create a smaller pouch. Then this new pouch is connected directly to the lower small intestine, bypassing the main stomach, duodenum, and upper small intestine. As a result, patients eat less and absorb fewer calories.
One type of weight loss surgery is adjustable gastric banding. This surgery involves placing an inflatable silicone band around the upper part of the stomach. The gastric band is inflated, shrinking the upper stomach pouch, restricting stomach capacity, which helps you eat less and feel full longer.

Dr Shieh has been my surgeon for many years. In 2010 I had a botched up surgery for Lap Band from a different doctor in Fort Myers and my family physician recommended I see Dr Shieh. He removed my band and did Gastric Bypass. No issues and because of him and his staff I have been able to keep the weight off and feel great!
He has treated me for routine procedures to emergency surgeries. He is an amazing surgeon and genuinely cares about his patients.

I had surgery done for a "hiatal hernia". Procedure done by what they call a doctor there "Moses K. Shieh, DO, FACOS"- I have never been the same since - I had several repercussions that I'm still fighting 5 months later. After the procedure in the Hospital I told "Moses K. Shieh, DO, FACOS" of the diarrhea problem to which he said and did NOTHING. I have been to several other Doctors for the problems that arose from this initial procedure, including a colonoscopy and a slew of lab tests for perpetual diarrhea. - Yesterday they had the audacity to arbitrarily bill me another $96.64, five months

Dr. Ramlogan and the staff were terrific. I had a lipoma removed, a simple procedure but I was still anxious and nervous about going under anesthesia. Dr. Ramlogan put me right at ease, even prayed for me before going into surgery. I am not a religious person, but I appreciated that Dr. Ramlogan was and wanted to pray for a good outcome. His manner and calm nature just made me feel like everything would be fine. The surgery went well, the wound healed perfectly. Couldn’t ask for a better outcome or a nicer doctor.

I highly recommend Dr. Stephen Fleischer. He is an absolutely amazing surgeon! He goes above and beyond the call of duty to ensure you receive superior care. He really takes his time to listen to you, your needs, and your wishes. It shows in all that he does that you are his #1 priority and it is done with excellence and integrity. He also has exceptional surgical skills and is very kind, caring, and compassionate.

My son had the sleeve surgery in July 2020. Dr. Ramlogan was the surgeon. Dr. Ramlogan was absolutely excellent. He is very caring, encouraging, and informative. He takes time with his patients. My son has lost over 140 lbs in the first year. We cannot say enough about how good the Surgical Healing Arts Center staff have been.

I highly recommend Dr. Ramlogan if you are considering gastric bypass surgery. I decided to have Dr. Ramlogan perform my sleeve gastrectomy after reading his many positive reviews online. What made it even better was the fact that he was local! Dr. Ramlogan took the time to explain things to me & I appreciate his confidence, mannerism & sense of humor before & after my procedure. I especially appreciated how he offered to pray with me before my surgery. His office is efficient & organized & I felt very prepared for my surgery. I knew what to expect pre and post surgery. The dietician helped me

Everyone at Surgical Healing Arts Center have always been so caring and helpful. From my first appointment through all of my nutritionist visits I have felt completely comfortable, excited, and trusting in the process and people who work within Surgical Healing. When it came to the day of my surgery, Dr. Ramlogan came to visit with me and offered to pray with me. His words put me at ease, and everyone with him in the operation room were so calming and reassuring when they saw I was nervous. I was surprised when I saw how amazing my incisions looked and how nicely they have been healing. I am so

Every thing about Dr Shieh's group is extraordinary.. I had a very complex hiatal hernia from years ago and it became to the point I had to get help. Dr Shieh was there for us every step of the way. He brought a ray of sunshine every time he saw you. He tells you what needs to be done and does it. He is not only a master of surgery;but is a great guy. I thank God for sending me to him. His staff and the other surgeons are very good also!!

Despite not being able to have surgery due to not being covered by insurance. I highly recommend the doctors and staff at surgical healing arts. The office staff is compassionate and very friendly. Kat truly is a God sent. Kat not only was a great encouragement but listened to me cry when I was denied. I am disappointed that I was unable to join the successful team. I truly believe that surgical healing arts is saving lives.
