Fantastic experience: I have never met a doctor more caring about his patience. He hears you and your concerns he allows you to be upfront and honest no judgment and I love that he doesn’t treat like your just a check. His staff is also professional and and caring they all go above and beyond to make sure your health is together. Couldn’t have chosen a better Doctor especially after seeing five before doing my own research and finding him.

David R. 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: As someone who has struggled considerably with weight loss and as someone who has been very very committed to living a healthy lifestyle I can write this review from a perspective that most people may not be familiar with. I have struggled considerably with weight loss for over 20 years with weight fluctuations of 80 pounds or more. I have never believed in surgery or any type of medical procedure and was always a big advocate of doing it "the old fashioned way" Unfortunately given the constant health risks I faced and the changes in my body composition I developed considerable health issues. Enter Dr. Shah, at first I was NOT a big fan of the options which were being proposed nor was I even looking to go through with ANY surgical procedures. Dr. Shah was quite informative, supportive of whatever decision I wanted to make and encouraged me to do my own research and educate myself as much as possible. His professional, compassionate, approach along with his incredibly supportive and easy to understand explanations made the decision (along with any fears I had) of going ahead with surgery a very easy choice to make. Dr. Shah in his practice is one of the few doctors with an excellent bed side manner who is not only brilliant and good at what he does, he actually explains everything in a way that you as a patient can clearly understand. In doing so any fears or hesitations tend to subside. After performing the surgery, his staff along with himself are all extremely well versed in guiding you through the recovery process and ensuring you have not simply the physical support but most importantly the MENTAL SUPPORT! As this is what I seemed to have been missing all along. So to conclude my experience with Dr. Shah I would say that I am quite thankful I found him and even more thankful that I had such great success but had it not been for his support and guidance through this process I am not certain I would have ever achieved all I have achieved. In this case loosing almost 100 pounds. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM FOR ANYONE WHO IS SERIOUS ABOUT WEIGHT LOSS
