Dr. Ahmad Shaker was totally familiar with the history of my case, going back to my colon resection In March 2018 in New Jersey, the annual follow-up colonoscopies there and here in Florida, and the follow-up blood test and imagery results, including those he prescribed for me scheduled for August (2023) just prior to this visit. He spent several minutes those results (which were on the whole very good) and gave me a little advice about one or two slight deviations from the normal. Dr. Shaker also reconfirmed that I would not need another colonoscopy in the future. I have much confidence in his knowledge, experience, and professionalism.
