I had a great experience. I was actually running a little late and was able to call the office and they were very accommodating. Dr. Shah was absolutely pleasant. Very patient, he listened to all my concerns, never rushed me, educated me on my concerns and set up some follow up tests to put me at ease but also error on the side of caution. I would recommend him to everyone that I know. He is very professional but brings a calming presence when he walks in. 10/10 from me.
