Patient Reviews
May 18, 2019
I have been seeing Dr. Shah for diabetic retinopathy for over 10 years, he has diagnosed problems and treated them at an early stage to maintain my vision. He is extremely skillful, and I have total confidence in him. He is polite and considerate, but truthfully is just too busy with so many patients to sit and chitchat, but he will not rush you if you continue to have questions. I will not go to any other retina specialist.
