    Dr. Shank was very professional and compassionate! She has so much knowledge and experience of my situation and symptoms. Explained everything very well. Answered all my questions and concerns. I was very impressed with her ability to get everything I needed in one appointment. I live 100 miles away from Omaha. I am very thankful for the experience!

    Dr Shank is amazing. So thorough, respectful, and kind. I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. She made sure I understood what was happening, she explained everything so well, saved time for questions, and I never felt like she was rushed. Overall awesome experience.
