Dr. Shibayama is an Excellant Surgeon.
When first meeting Dr. Shibayama, he entered the room with the utmost intelligance of a hand shake and introducing himself. He did'nt hesitate at all about my injury and how seriously it needed to be attended to, he was very direct with professionalism! and explained everything to where you could understand. I knew rt then i had the right Doctor! What was sooo! Astonishing!!! was that he did'nt mind showing his Love for the Lord and wanted to Pray for me, again i most Definitely knew for a fact he was the right one. If i had any fear at all because i can tell you 100 percent i truely did, he was responsible for removing my fear. My surgery was a success!

TOA will be my first choice when it comes to any surgical procedures. My wife is a patient of Dr. Shibayama. I liked the way she was treated personally and medically, so that made my decision easy. There is one thing that separates Dr. Shibayama from other physicians is his faith. Prayers are strong and appreciated.

Great Doctor
I came to Dr. Shibayama for a L5, S1 disc bulge. After a mylogram we decided surgery was needed. Dr. Shibayama was professional and understanding at my visit before surgery. He explained everything they were going to do during surgery. Since my surgery he’s been very caring and listens to anything you have concerns about. I’ve even had my husband referred to him but he is awaiting a MRI before he can see him. You also can’t go wrong see his PA Matthew Gaston. He also deserves 5 stars. The thing that I have to say impressed me the most was at the end of every visit he prays for you! And right before they took me back for surgery we all held hands and he prayed for me and for my surgery to go as planned. You don’t find that in doctors today. At least I’ve never had a doctor do that before. It was a really nice surprise and change. I would recommend very much!

L5-S1 fusion.
Dr. Shibayama and his team have always treated me well. Always professional and to the point. They pray with you and wish wellness for you. My surgery was a success. I felt my legs and feet again for the first time in a long time as soon as I awoke from anesthesia. I’m so thankful for deciding to have Dr Shibayama take care of my back. Years of pain and suffering are now a thing of my past. Many thanks and prayers for Dr. Shibayama and his teams for getting me back on track.

Back fusion
A friend of mine told me about Dr. Juris Shibayama who fused his back about 10 years ago. My first time at his office Dr Shibayama was on time, he is a pleasant fellow, easy to talk to and by no means arrogant. I felt comfortable talking with him, and he patiently answered all my questions. I suffered with a painful back since 2014. Dr. Shibayama ordered an MRI of my lower back. After seeing my MRI etc. he told me what my options are and what he thought was the best for my condition. He recommended an Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion. I did research on this procedure and agreed to have it done. My surgery is scheduled for next month and I feel confident that he will do a good job. By 65 you become a pretty good judge of character. So far I'm impressed with Dr. Shibayama, he seems to practice the golden rule, a rare quality these days.

When you pray for healing and you have to see an orthopedic MD and then at the end of the visit he asks you if he can pray with you, it is my opinion that you are already on the right path of healing. Dr Shibyama does this and I know relief is coming!

Back surgery
I was suffering with severe pain from sciatica. Dr. Shibayama performed the surgery and I walked a mile the next day (pain free). I ‘m now walking at least 2 miles each day.

Great surgeon, caring, good Christian man!
I’ve had several surgeries, been in a lot of hospitals and surgery centers, and this is hands down the best experience I’ve ever had. Great staff, great care, and if anyone has to have back surgery, this is the surgeon and facility to choose.

Great Visit
Had a really great visit yesterday with Dr. Shibayama. He explained thoroughly and in terms I would understand how the procedure works, and what I can expect. I felt very nervous beforehand about having spinal surgery, but I feel a lot more at ease after meeting with Dr. Shibayama. Wishing for a successful surgery next week!

Back pain
Dr. Shibayama explained many details for back surgery even though I was there to get an epidural scheduled. It was good to hear many details as this is my best plan to get out of pain.

Christian Oriented Dr./Office
I have never been to an office I felt more at ease than at Dr. Shibayama’s. You never hear of doctors willing to pray for/with a patient before a procedure, much less an office visit. Dr. Shiby’s regular visit paperwork asks if there’s anything you need prayer for that they can pray for/with you over. At the end of your actual visit (where Dr. Shiby is very thorough and straightforward) he asks if you mind him praying for you & prays a prayer of blessings on your family. I’m eternally grateful for the care I’ve received from him and his office. 100000% recommend!!

Neck Surgery
I am glad that I chose Dr. Shibayama for my neck surgery. He put me on his schedule as soon as he could and was able to get my surgery done as soon as possible. Also, I would like to thank his surgical staff for their professionalism and dedication to their job. I am on day two after my surgery and I am already seeing results I have no pain on my left arm and numbness due to the previous pinched nerves in my neck. Again, big thank you to you and your staff, God bless you all.

Friendly office staff and technician support- everyone!!. Dr Shibayama is excellent- he not only is there for initial issue or surgery, he is always available for follow up - or responds to call questions or concerns via Jessica his nurse. He is a very gifted surgeon- when I first was diagnosed with degenerated discs- he let me know that although he loved surgery and being a surgeon, he would always look to provide the least extreme solutions to patient issues. Surgery would be the last resort on his first response. He was true to his word- it was 14 years before surgery became my best option- and Dr was always there through the years when I needed him. Theraphy worked for years- later epidural- then an out patient procedure- and after 14 years major surgery disc replacement- because of that surgery I can care for my Mother- we’ve been many years together- and I recommend him and always do to anyone suffering with back and spinal issues- he is a blessing from the Lord!
