I tore my ACL playing basketball at college - I was devastated. My coach and trainers recommended I go see Dr. Shah.

Office clean, safe. Very efficient with scheduling process. Dr. Shah came into the examination room asked me questions, listened to my problem and then took time to examine my shoulder and arm with some testing. He figured out the problem, ordered an MRI, I saw him again later that week, reviewed the findings with me explained why I needed surgery, and the surgery in detail with recovery.

I went to Dr. Shah for a 2nd opinion for my knee pain after seeing someone at Rush. He spent the appropriate amount of time, explained my condition, performed an exam and came up with well thought out options for me to consider. He was very kind and personable. An excellent visit.

I had a really bad shoulder injury falling off my bike with broken bone and dislocation. Another doctor missed that it was dislocated, saw Dr. Shah and recognized the problem right away and fixed me right away. The recovery will be long, but Dr. Shah was very kind and put me back together. I am so grateful that I saw him and that he fixed me. I am not taking any pain medications thanks to his expertise.

I tore my ACL playing soccer at college - I was devastated. My coach and trainers recommended I go see Dr. Shah. He spent a lot of time with me discussed the injury, the surgery, the recovery, and went out of his way to help me get my MRI right away and talked to my parents to calm them as well. My surgery went very well, and I plan to be back on the pitch in no time. Dr. Shah is the best surgeon around and has the best demeanor for injured athletes.

Great experience. People working in the office all very nice and quick to offer a hand and help answer logistical questions. Dr. Shah himself is very pleasant, explains everything, and really has a knack for anticipating questions and answering them while I was thinking about them. Never fun having to go to a doc for shoulder pain, but no one is better than Dr. Shah and his team.

He took really good care of me and my family members that needed to see an ortho surgeon for our shoulder problems. We refer our friends to him, and he takes great care of them as well. We applaud him for always being available for us, even during the pandemic. He has a great reputation and really cares about his patient, which is so hard to find these days and so important.

My daughter dislocated her shoulder playing basketball. She needed surgery, and we choose Dr. Shah because of recommendations from friends. He was very kind with his time, explained everything making sure we were comfortable with the plan and the map to get her back to playing again. She had surgery 4 weeks ago and is well on the road to recovery. Highly recommend Dr. Shah and his entire time at Parkview.
