Dr. Shah addressed all of my questions and very clearly explained treatment options. More importantly, she helped me understand the current state of the science behind my individual thyroid concerns. This resulted in a productive back-and-forth discussion, and our ultimate decision about next-steps was commonly-derived. Other doctors I have seen made me feel like treating my hypothyroidism was "painting by the numbers," that little discretion one way or another is permitted. By contrast, Dr. Shah concentrated on my symptoms and thoroughly explored the alternatives. My mind is greatly at ease knowing that my Hashimoto's is now under the care of Dr. Shah and the team at Paloma Health.

I was connected with Paloma Health and Dr. Shah and so far this has been an amazing experience. I finally felt heard after seeing so many doctors for 25 years! Looking forward to the rest of my journey with Paloma and the Doctor.

On day one of her endocrinology rotation after medical school, Dr. Shah knew that endocrinology was for her.

Dr. Shah is really nice and always check my condition and try to fix my problems.

I felt heard after many doctors who dismissed my symptoms.
Very poor communication prior to visit. Was unaware it was an online service and not a standard office and that it requires a portal, for which I did not receive log in information until just before my appointment was starting. They did not send intake forms until the very last minute so I was unable to provide all appropriate documents & history to be prepared for the visit. My appointment was automatically canceled after answering one question- apparently you can only see this practice for very specific reasons not listed, despite my appointment being booked as simply an initial consultation. Doctor still saw me, but nothing was accomplished. A waste of time & money as the doctor kept saying she could not answer my questions or comment on my health history. Felt very rushed and did not get the support I was looking for. At the end of the appointment, doctor told me she was starting a new practice so any follow up would not be with her. Why accept a new patient then? Very misleading.

Dr. Shah asked plenty of questions to understand my situation and really made me feel that she was coming up with a plan tailored to my circumstances. Dr. Shah listened to my concerns and came up with a treatment plan that I think works perfect for me. She was also very good at explaining my condition and making sure I understood that my symptoms are not my fault and explained the treatment in a way that makes it feel very doable.

Dr. Shah is by far, the best doctor I have ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot since being diagnosed with hypothyroidism). She is genuine, empathetic, knowledgeable, and very respectful of client’s goals/needs. I couldn’t be happier with her quality of patient care. She is a gem!
Dr. Shah is wonderful!
So great!
