Reviews
I would like to say that Dr. Shah is a very kind, understanding person. He puts your mind at rest and nothing is too much trouble. I would highly recommend him to patients requiring his expertise in his field of medicine.
Really knowledgeable and personable doctor. Put me at ease and answered questions fully in plain English; he doesn't burden you with medical jargon. I'd definitely recommend him.
Dr Shah was incredibly helpful in solving an on-going problem for me. He listened and took note of what action had been taken in the past and quickly arranged tests to ensure a correct diagnosis. Approachable and friendly from the first appointment through to the last. His continuing support via email after being discharged is excellent and something I really value. Thanks very much Dr Shah.
Dr Shah is a highly skilled and professional Consultant. Also he is an extremely effective communicator. A good listener, who shows empathy, uses humour appropriately and is very attentive and reassuring. I continue to be confident that he is providing me with excellent treatment and care.
A very kind and caring Doctor who provides excellent clear explanations of the possible causes of crohn's disease and treatment options. He has a relaxed manner and is always available to meet, phone and email. He listens to your concerns and addresses them. Good feedback post colonoscopy/gastroscopy.
