Dr Shah is fantastic. I have seen him only a few times over the past 3 or 4 years and really do not care to see anyone else. He is personable, friendly, and explains things to me the way I better understand.

Dr. Shah, his assistant, [...], and receptionist staff were professional, efficient, thoughtful and respectful. I highly regard this group of professionals and feel, especially, Dr. Shah and [...], provide the perfect amount of warmth & kindness while executing their medical skills in a knowledgeable and professional manner.

Fantastic clinic in Dr. Shah's clinic. Dr. Shah and his nurses were fantastic. If I had to give any suggestions at all; as I worked as a secretary for a small business for 5 years; the general desk ladies in some departments; maybe try to put on a little more of a smile sometimes; otherwise they're great at their jobs and I know times are stressful. Great work UW.

I can't think of anything that needs improvement. The office is very clean and inviting (the waiting room and the treatment room). Dr. Shah's medical assistant[...]i is professional and friendly. He gives knowledgeable answers to my questions and I feel very relaxed around him. Dr. Shah is an excellent surgeon. I have a 50 year history of somewhat complicated sinus issues. Dr. Shah is the 5th surgeon I have seen over the 50 years. Dr. Shah is professional, experienced, kind, compassionate and a good listener. In turn he responds with easy to understand answers to all my questions.

*Dr. Shah is one of the FEW good ones at UW Clinics etc. He actually listens and cares. Takes into things like Aspbergs and such things we have. More of a "What bothers you?" then "everybody"!! He likes to FIND what the problem is and NOT just take his pill and go home. HE knows the word "individual" means and not everyone is the same. Very friendly, polite and so on. Would send anybody I know to him without a doubt.
