Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Shah is an exceptional person who has been treating my wife for bladder/kidney cancer for 10 years. EVERYTHING about this man makes him a great choice for anyone in need. NYP is a fantastic organization, the hospital and the entire staff is TOP NOTCH. We are very thankful to be in his care.

Trustworthy caring physician
Dr. Shah was a gift and I’m so lucky to have had his care and expertise over the years. Having suffered with kidney stones for 41 years he has been a godsend in helping me day or night to manage my pain and discomfort while trying to understand why I keep getting stones.

Great Surgeon...I've had several procedures by other Dr's and I'm never going to anyone but Dr. Shah! Dr. Shah is on the ball and up to date with the latest technologies and procedures in his field. He thoroughly explains procedures and has great bed side manner and a warm personality. I would highly recommend Dr. Shah to any members of my family or close friends.

I am very happy with Dr. Shah. He is patient, respectful, and kind. He does not rush you and listens to all questions and concerns. He came highly recommended by a well known surgeon in the city who is a friend.
