Dr. Shilpa Shah, OD

Dr. Shilpa Shah, OD

Optometrist
6735 S Emerson Ave, Indianapolis, IN
Undergraduate Education: Bachelor of Science from Purdue University, majoring in Biology and minoring in Spanish. Optometry School: Illinois College of Optometry, 2009. Professional Achievements and Associations: Indiana Optometric Association, American Optometric Association. Clinical Certifications and Specialties: Primary care, dry eye treatment, computer vision syndrome. The reason I became an optometrist is: I was interested in healthcare from a young age as I knew I wanted to be in a field that makes an impact and difference on others. I was fortunate enough to not need any vision correction while growing up but had many family members who either wore glasses or suffered from eye conditions (Glaucoma, etc.). I came to realize that the field of optometry is so fascinating in that I would get to care for not only patients' vision needs (glasses and contacts), but also help with their healthcare needs. I am lucky to work in a field with ever changing technology that allows me to provide this comprehensive care to patients each day. My favorite part of helping my patients is: I am fortunate to work in the area I grew up (graduated from Franklin Central High School), so it's been a humbling experience to impact the community I know and love. Forming trusting relationships with my patients and their families by helping them see and feel better is so rewarding each day. In my spare time, I enjoy: Traveling, live theater, playing tennis, Cubs baseball, shoe shopping, and exploring parks and museums with my husband and kids (Keenan and Nahla). I also love a good book, a cup of coffee, and binge-watching Netflix!
