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.

I had another ENT, but wasn't comfortable anymore on how he treated my son on our last visit. I was given the name of another Dr. after a visit to the ER for myself. I ended up seeing Dr. Shah and what a difference. I didn't feel rushed, he answered questions, was very thorough. Great bedside manner. The other staff that I saw in the office as well, were professional, knowledgeable and treated me with respect. Glad to have found a Dr. I feel comfortable with.

He is a great doctor. My son has a minor ear wax problem. He takes him less than 5 minutes to take care my son problem. I would highly recommend this doctor.

Dr. Shah is very personable & very skilled. He helped me with my ear issue in one visit. Also he took the time needed to answer all of my questions. My ENT retired & I was hesitant to try a new doctor, but I was very impressed by Dr. Shah & his staff.

Dr. Shah and his staff are all I could have hoped for in a medical practitioner. He has been my family's ENT physician for a few years now and has always provided the absolute best care, and I believe, best advice and treatment during every visit. If you are looking for a doctor with comprehensive medical knowledge, treats the whole person, and takes the time to be caring even while maintaing a very efficient office, then Dr. Shah is someone you should consider!

Always very nice and helpful. Spent a ton of insurance money there. He promised me after sinus surgery thar he could get rid of a sinus infection in one day. I called on a Friday am with a terrible sinus infection and his staff was rude and would not get me in to see the PA until the following Tuesday. I seeked help elsewhere and will never use this place again. I recommended at least 3 patients to his practise. I will never be back.
