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.

WellMed has ruined the clinic
We’ve been patients of Dr Shah for decades. We have moved 90 minutes away but maintained the relationship. The last 2 visits under WellMed we have managed to see Dr Shah or his PA exactly zero times. First time the PA was ill and we were not notified. Today, they wouldn’t see my wife without a Covid test and wouldn’t approve renewals for my maintenance meds without a full physical. These are meds prescribed by Dr Shah 20 years ago. Also wouldn’t give me a physical since I came with my wife. Sad that after decades, we won’t be back. I will miss Dr. Shah.

Disappointed – Jun 21, 2024

Sigh, every visit is very frustrating.
I've been going for years b/c my family dr, but need to find a new one. ALWAYS rushed and stands halfway out the door, will talk over you, doesn't listen, will cut you off while you're speaking, brushes you off and your concerns. Very frustrating visiting dr. The staff is also questionable, they barely understand you when you speak so you have to repeat numerous times, and it's hard to understand them either. The staff barely seem like they got through their training or even certified to be working in a medical office.

Best Physian care in DFW
Dr Shah has been our family doctor for last 14 years and we couldn't he happier. He takes his time and patiently listens to our concerns. We all are very happy with the care he provides and his staff is top notch as well.

He is excellent and goes above and beyond to make the patient feel secure and welcomed. His, ‘How are you doing today, my dear’, greeting is very reassuring that you will be listened to, not ignored, diagnosed and treated well. I have seen many DRs in the past and he is, by far, the very best. He is very knowledgeable and will explain everything and answer any questions.

STAY AWAY! For the sake of your health or your family member's health. I don't think my family member would've had multiple strokes had he actually received the proper medical care. Dr. Shah missed the mark many times. We would actually have to get advice from other doctors and then tell Shah what to do and what exams to order. Had we not consulted other Physicians, my family member probably wouldn't be here today. Btw, we went there multiple times throughout the pandemic and not once did they ask if we had covid symptoms. Every other Drs office we would go to they would pre-screen us. That says a lot about how much they care. One last thing - we found out my family member had multiple conditions because we randomly asked for a copy of a CT scan report. This was OVER A MONTH after the CT had actually been done and yet we never received a call about these conditions from Dr. Shah. Also, never called about HEP A in blood work, found out 5+ months later.

I've been going to Dr Shah for years, but hadn't been there for about 3 years, I went in for a problem he had treated before. He refused to do anything for me and I wasted $95 for an office visit because he wasn't on my insurance plan. I asked for a refund and the lady said she'd call me back and never did. I can't believe he would take my money, yet do nothing for me.

Shocked – Apr 24, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Shah?
I have been going to Dr. Shah for years. He is a wonderful Doctor. He is very compassionate, spends a lot of time with me explaining the diagnosis, medicines and things I can do to help get my health back in shape. He genuinely cares about his patients. I have never had a negative experience with anyone there. His receptionist (Naz?) is very kind and caring, she recognizes me right when I walk in the door and greets me warmly by name, as does his nurse. Even the person who draws blood is very friendly. I love everyone at this office and highly recommend Dr. Shah to anyone.

I like dr Shah he is very kind and give you time and listen to you. No rush like his approach and his diagnostic results. He is good in accessing any complex situation with accurate diagnosis. His staff (specially his nurse "Sana" ) is the worse case scenario. If I am giving 10/10 to dr. Shah I will be giving 0/10 to his nurse.

I have been a patient of Dr. Shah for around 2 years. I rarely go see him but when I really needed a Dr. he did not come through. And the run around i received to get the results was unbelievable. The staff is not professional and during my time of need when i was in pain waiting for results and as i could not get a hold of anyone at thier office to give me any answers i asked for the office manager and recieved a call from the Dr. and his exact words were "find another DR" and he hung up.
