“Shama Patel, PA was very attentive to my medical issues. The best part is that her office does blood work, which makes things so much easier! The next best thing is that I’m able to see her right away! I’m so glad that I switched my pcp to Shama Patel!”

She adamantly believes it is her job to educate patients about those risks and inspire them to make changes. A board-certified physician assistant, Shama completed her undergraduate studies at Boston University before earning her master's degree in Physician Assistant Studies from Seton Hall University, where she graduated magna cum laude. In her free time, Shama loves cooking and trying new recipes, hiking with her husband, and spending time with her family and friends.

Dr Shama was so friendly and kind. She spoke in an educated but down to earth way and I appreciated her (especially after not seeing a GP in close to 10 years).

Great experience! The staff was very friendly. The intake nurse was thorough and also friendly. The physician I saw was thorough, took her time, got to know me and really seemed to care. I would 100% recommend her to anyone. She went through my history and understood my concerns and answered all my questions. Great experience.
