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.

He’s a very caring and knowledgeable doctor.

Rare Wonderful Doctor
I had seen another doctor at the Center who was very good; however, I had difficulty understanding him. Dr. Shah graciously took me as a patient and has been the best doctor I’ve ever seen. I only wish he could be my PCP!

Competent and kind!
I didn’t choose Dr Shah, he was recommended by my primary doctor, Dr Tucker, but I could not have found anyone more suitable for me! From the start, Dr Shah was caring and positive. He, and his entire team, helped me through what could have been so much worse if not for their caring and compassionate attitudes and support. I definitely feel like I “lucked out” with my entire cancer team! Special shout outs to:1) The ladies at the front desk - they set the tone for the entire operation!2) Lab personnel - always so friendly and very good at drawing blood!3) Maria - Dr Shah’s PA. Knowledgeable with good suggestions for keeping my WBC count in range. Always smiling!4) Last but definitely not least, Abby B - my chemo nurse for 9 of 12 treatments. She was more like a friend than my nurse and I looked forward to seeing her every 2 weeks! I recommend this cancer facility. I appreciate that good cancer care can be found in northwest Indiana without having to drive to Chicago!
