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.

My father was gasping for air for 3 days. She gave him a script for amoxicillin over the phone without seeing him. He called again for help, she transferred him to the CPAP department! He ended up being taken by ambulance with congestive heart failure, lungs filled with fluid and on the verge of death.

I have to remind her periodically to perform some exams such as a basic ear exam. She has never seen me without my shirt or pants on. This is weird and a little scary. I'm 69, I have NEVER had a medical exam without taking my clothes off. Even when I asked for a rectal exam she refuses to do it. She said “Get a Colonoscopy.” Often, she is in a hurry and does not listen. It's as though I am an annoyance. I wonder what other parts of the physical was skimmed over. Dr Shah wears a headscarf that is folded a few times. When she uses her stethoscope, the earpieces are outside the scarf. and the diaphragm is on my shirt. The earpieces must seal tight to the ear canal and there should not be anything between the diaphragm and the patient. She cannot possibly hear through all that cloth. If male nudity is a problem for her, she should get another career.

Worse doctor I ever had she lies, record her sessions or else she would promise to God she didn't say what she saids. I had pneumonia 1st she misdiagnosed me, An ER student caught her mistake, Then she said "Pneumonia wasn't contagious. Refused to give me additional time off from work because I wasn't at full strength and really wasn't feeling good. She told me, " I will give you 1 day off because when I'm sick I come to work and I'm not going to give you more than I would take myself" :-O
