Dr Shakir literally turned my life to the better! The level of professionalism and care he treated me with was the top, which is hard to meet nowadays in the digital world we live in. Dr. Shakir patiently answered all my questions before the surgery to ensure I knew what is and will be happening and so I could feel in peace. If you ever need to go through such life changing event like internal organ surgery I recommend you reach out to Dr Shakir so he can go through those changes with you!

My gastroenterologist referred me to Dr Shakir as an option for my gallbladder removal, and I’m so glad he did. From the initial consultation to today’s post-op appointment with Dr Shakir and his staff, everything went very smoothly. He did the robotic laparoscopic removal and the incisions look amazing. Dr Shakir is knowledgeable, efficient, and professional. I hope I don’t need a general surgeon in the future, but if I do, I’d 100% book another surgery with him.
Whether performing hernia repair or gallbladder surgery, Dr. Shakir is known for his precision, patient-focused professionalism, and dedication to outcomes that help patients feel confident and at ease.
He takes the time to clearly explain each step of the process, ensuring patients understand their options and feel fully prepared before surgery.
From consultation through recovery, his approach emphasizes safety, transparency, and compassionate care tailored to each individual’s needs.
