Patient Reviews
Aug 21, 2022
My daughter suffered for 2 years with crohns. A local GI actually took her off Remicade because she didn’t know how to balance dosage with other meds, I got a 2nd opinion from a top GI in Boston who said he not only trained dr Shah but dr shah was treating his own brother! He immediately called dr shah and told him what my daughter was going thru. My daughter is now in long term remission, When I see my daughter at the gym working out I realize how lucky we were to find dr Shah. As anyone with Crohns the suffering can be awful and long term. Not too many days pass that I don’t have a kind thought about dr shah and his level of expertise . If anyone is seeing a GI other then Dr shah and are not doing well I urge you to get into his practice. Even if he can’t see you he can over see your case. Too many GI aren’t well trained in Crohns. This is a disease that only the best will do!
