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.

Knowledgeable and kind also
She listens to me. Asks me lots of questions so she understands what's happening. She does everything she can to keep you from going into hospital. Very smart and knowledgeable. She's also kind and understanding!

Saved my life.
Dr. Shah diagnosed my breathing crisis as Myasthenia Gravis, and she was the only doctor after my surgery and hospitalizations to do so. She saved my life. She is thorough, kind, compassionate and brilliant.

Dr. Shah was very thorough. I am so glad to have had her treating me during my hospital. I was so impressed with her abilities, attentiveness and thoroughness that I switched from my local Doctor. I would highly recommend Dr. Shah. I also found her office staff to be friendly and efficient.

Very Pleased With Dr. Shah
Dr. Shah listened carefully, asked many pertinent questions about the symptoms I described, and asked if I had more questions. I never felt rushed. A very good interview.

Felt judged and dismissed
Felt very dismissed and not listened to as a patient that has been in and out of hospitals due to chronic autoimmune issues my entire life. Left crying and will never see her again.

Very thorough and caring
Dr Shah has listened carefully to my symptoms and reviewed my health history without rushing. She explained her approach to helping me and in the follow up appointment explained test results. Equally willing to explain to my daughter what I need. Staff is also very patient and accessible.
