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.

Excellent doctor

Dr. Shah did an excellent job explaining everything before and after the procedure and even helped me resolve a different health issue after my procedure. He was excellent!

I was very impressed with Dr Shah and his staff. I found him to be professional knowledgeable and personable. I was referred to him for an endoscopy. After a thorough interview and examination he suggested a colonoscopy as well. The suggestion may have saved my life, because he found 4 pre-cancerous polyps, a peptic ulcer, gastritis and diverticulitis. At the first visit, Dr.Shah gave me thourough instructs & Zantac for the gets. My husband needed an endoscopy; so, we requested Dr Shaw.

He has to be the worst doctor and has the longest wait time of any medical office I've ever been to. Do not go to him, I have crohns and diverticulosis and yet he will not give me anything until he runs his own tests (was diagnosed 10 years ago) which is over a month away.
