Expertise and Empathy
I have been a patient of Dr. Vanessa M. Shami since 2015, when my GI doctor relayed that I needed to see a specialist. Dr. Shami is one of the friendliest and approachable doctors that I have. Complicated health situations can be quite intimidating and overwhelming, and she has the gift of communicating in layman's terms and is making you feel at ease. The entire surgical process is efficient and seamless. Dr. Shami's nurse and the whole staff at the Endoscopy Unit at the UVA's Digestive Health Center are well organized and personable. As a patient, I can attest to Dr. Shami's sincere and empathetic manner - without hesitation; I highly recommend Dr. Shami. read more
