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.

Great doctor

Great orthopedic doctor!
My 13 year-old broke his finger badly. Dr. Shah was great with him. His knowledge and understanding of the issue as well as how well he related to both my son and me was excellent!

Fantastic surgeon!!
After researching many plastic surgeries in the Chicagoland area, I chose Dr. Samir Shah. I couldn’t be any happier!! From my consult through my post, surgery care, Dr. Shah, and his staff were stellar! His bedside manner is absolutely fantastic. He followed up with me personally the morning after surgery, as well as a few other times during my recovery. His staff made me feel welcomed, important, and were phenomenal to work with us. I can’t say enough about him or his office staff. It is the first time in a long time that a physician has made me feel that my health and recovery was a priority. You will never regret choosing Dr. shot is your surgeon

Very Happy with my experience
After 20 years of my 1st breast augmentation one collapsed. I went to Dr Shah and had the procedure to put new implants in. Dr Shah was great, very attentive and I was able to get it done quickly. Unfortunately after 3 months my body started contracting in the same breast that collapsed. Dr Shah saw me immediately and we were able to reverse the contracture with meds and massage, no surgery needed! Dr Shah and Colleen were amazing and explaining and making sure I was comfortable. All the staff is extremely friendly appointments are very timely.

Amazing Experience!
Dr. Shah and his team are amazing. My experience with the office was wonderful start to finish, I can’t recommend them enough! I was referred to the office by a handful of very close friends. They were 100% correct when they said Dr. Shah was the best! I felt comfortable and confident in my decision and will definitely be back in the future!
