Great doctors and great service
Excellent Service!
Dr. Shah was lovely. She was easy to talk to, got to work on my corns right away and I walked out of the office with no pain whatsoever. She also recommended orthotic inserts for my shoes to help prevent recurrence. I will definitely go back to her the next time I need a podiatrist.
She is excellent. Explains everything thoroughly.
After our podiatrist of many years left our network, we were very upset, but thanks to a recommendation we were very lucky to find Dr. Shah. She made us comfortable immediately, is thorough, listens to your concerns and takes time to explain things to you. We are very happy to have found her.
Excellent
