I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate Dr. Nishi Shah. She is kind - she is happy to see her patients and lets us know. She is professional - she takes time to explain my conditions and options in exactly the right detail. She is thoughtful - she remembers my concerns and wishes from one appointment to the next. (At my last appointment she advised me of a treatment I had asked about that was recently approved for my condition). And she is a great doctor. I feel very confident of having the best care available anywhere. Please thank her for me
