Emergency tracheotomy on my elderly mother was performed with such speed and confidence it felt like watching a military operation. Dr. Shapira's team moved like a perfectly synchronized unit, saving her life without a moment's hesitation.
As an 82-year-old with chronic sinus issues, Dr. Shapira's gentle approach during my nasal endoscopy was remarkable. He explained each step in his calm voice and actually made me laugh when he compared my sinuses to 'ancient Roman aqueducts that just need cleaning.' My breathing hasn't been this clear in decades!
Our 4-year-old was terrified of doctors until Dr. Shapira. He knelt down to her level, showed her the otoscope with a story about 'looking for bunnies in ears,' and had her giggling throughout the entire ear infection examination. She actually asked when we could visit him again!
Rushed to Sheba's ER at 2 AM with a fishbone stuck in my throat, Dr. Shapira performed the removal with such precision I barely felt anything. What impressed me most was how he stayed afterward to ensure I understood proper first aid for future incidents - true dedication beyond the emergency.
As a professional singer, I was devastated by vocal nodules. Dr. Shapira didn't just treat them - he collaborated with a voice coach to create a holistic recovery plan. I'm back on stage with better technique than before!
