Scott Schneider, M.D. - Chico (CA)

5 /5 Esmeralda Sixtos: I had gallbladder surgery by Dr.Schneider on 08/14/2023 so it has been a little over two months, I went into his office upset and ready to have my issue resolved as I had lost 33lbs in 2 months ( I went from 156 to 123) because I was unable to eat almost anything without feeling pain, nausea and bloating. Upon entering his office Schneider was very kind and friendly and asked me how I was doing (which I responded "good" with a smile, I dont know why I lied lol) Dr. Schneider read me and asked if I wanted to change my answer, which, I then broke down and cried a little and told him how I had been feeling, he listened the whole time and offered me a tissue and not once pressured me into surgery. He asked what I wanted done after he gave me my options and I elected the surgery, he explained to me what he would do and was very confident and explained repercussions with each option he provided. Once I left his office and he had me sit with the surgery scheduler she booked me for surgery within 12 days, My recovery went overall amazing and my incision sites are very small and healing well. I felt almost immediate relief after surgery and just feel some aches here and there where my gb use to be and at my incision sites when I am physically active (which I am sure is due to my body still healing) but am no longer dealing with weight loss, pain or vomiting, the surgery itself took about 42 minutes or less and I was so shocked at how well my body handled it. I am finally able to eat foods I enjoy again and have not had any significant changes in my digestive system as of now. I highly recommend Dr. Schneider and his staff, I am hopeful that I continue healing well and am very thankful for their work.

5 /5 J G: I wasnt going to have hernia surgery until I met Dr. Schneider. I got such a good feeling from him I decided I should go ahead and get it done. Im 5 days past surgery now and the entire surgery experience was great, I think he did an amazing job and I would recommend him to anyone.

5 /5 Ernie Schuetzle: My wife,who I adore greatly, had a lemon sized lipoma on her left shoulder and was highly reluctant to get it removed. Dr Schneider came highly recommended and we were able to get an appointment to come and see him. My wife Valerie prayed and prayed that he would be called out to a hospital surgery and would therefore miss the approaching appointment. Not so! Dr Schneider was bushy tailed and ready to go and the nervous Valerie was ushered into his office and was gone for the next hour only to return with a big smile on her face. Here is her review: The doctors is great! His bedside manner was the best- he completely put me at ease and was very matter of fact about what we were about to undergo. His manner made me stay relaxed and he bantered back and forth with my friend while he removed a large fatty tumor from my shoulder. He listened to me if I encountered any pain and well, he was very good at surgery! The fatty tumor was pretty large and was stuck on the muscle and my scar is pretty small and is healing extremely well. I am sooo grateful to Dr. Schneider. Thank you again. I have full range of my shoulder and just after only 2 weeks I am back on my beloved pole for pole fitness and I am having no complications. Dr Schneider is an exceptional doctor!
