Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Shamim is an excellent, kind and calm doctor. She eases my worries, as I am someone who gets very nervous, and do not go to Dr’s often. She is intelligent and I appreciate the time she spends with my wife and I, during our appointments. I highly recommend her.

Great & Empathetic Doctor
Dr. Shamim displays attributes that you can barely find in a doctor lately. She takes her time to listen to your concerns, explains in detail what you have; and offers different options to explore. She is also kind and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Shamim.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Shamim is an outstanding physician. I highly recommend her. She's performed a number of succesful procedures on my bad back and most recently a minimally evasive Tenex procedure on my shoulder/ torn rotator cup. I have also had physical therapy at her Englewood, NJ office. As they say, getting old is not for the faint of heart... at least as it relates to my chronic pain issues. Dr. Shamim's intervention and guidance has gone a long way toward greatly reducing my chronic pain. She cares about me and my health.

Outstanding care
Dr. Shamim is kind and thorough. She is an excellent listener and explains what she is seeing in depth in a way that I could understand it. She even adjusted the angle of the sonogram so I could see and understand what was on the screen during her examination. She knows her patients well and is both talented and very personable. I highly recommend her.

I have been under the care of Dr. Shamim for the past 6 months and have found her to be very professional, personable and knowledgeable. She has taken the time to listen to me and helped identify what the problem was. She actually took the time to show me on a model where my issue was and what she was going to do, what I should expect and what options I had to help me in making the right decision to what was the best treatment . I highly recommend Dr. Shamim.

I visited Dr. Shamim to evaluate a knee issue. She found a meniscus tear/cyst via ultrasound. This confirmed a surgery was required. I was looking for an alternative to surgery. She could not provide a treatment at this stage besides surgery due to the nature of my injury. Even though she could not help me, she spent about 15-20 minutes answering all my questions and explained future treatments I may want to pursue at later date. Dr. Shamim was kind, informative and her passion was easily recognized in the way she presented herself.

Dr. Shamin took the time to listen and really understand what was going on with me!! She offered multiple solutions and took the time to explain each one. I left the office feeling good about my ailments and how to treat them and left with relief knowing that Dr. Shamin would be treating me. I would recommend Dr. Shamin for all your orthopedic needs!! She really is an excellent doctor!

Horrible experience. I did a PRP procedure on left shoulder with Dr. Shamim. The recovery was terrible and the shoulder never healed 100 percent. I was told I could not do the procedure without PRP and was told the procedure was not covered by insurance so I paid $995 out of pocket. Four months later I did same procedure on right shoulder without PRP with a different doctor. The procedure was covered by insurance as there was no PRP. That recovery was significantly shorter and shoulder has no pain. When I called to talk to Dr. Shamim office about all of this, the office was not helpful at all and after speaking to 5 different people about it, I gave up and decided to post this review.

I visited Doctor Shamim with my son a student athlete hockey player with extreme hip pain. We found her to be extremely thorough with her diagnoses and demonstrated an excellent bedside manner with a young adult. Dr. Shamim performed a Tenex procedure relieving the pain that once plagued him for several months.
