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.

Doesn't care about out of state patients at all
I was told by shah I wasn't transplanted in nevada so I don'tatter to him . And after he kinda helped. But I'm in danger under his care and his little to no knowledge of multi organ transplant has me worried for my transplant. And his office staff is just as useless. My levels are high havingajor swelling feeling slow. Was told to wait a month to get results to see if they would help me any further. His partner told me he'd only help if I lost organ and went on dialysis. This office needs to be reviewed.

Dr Shah saved my life! I went into renal failure and he knew it was from an extremely rare autoimmune disease! He began treatments immediately to save my life! 9 years ago I received a kidney transplant and Dr Shah has taken care me since! He is very knowledgable and thorough! I got my life back and would highly recommend him!

Very knowledgeable doctor and I have a lot of confidence in him. Unfortunately staff doesn’t return calls, follow up on commitments or let you know when they can’t.
