Dr. Jyoti Shah, DO

After speaking with her, I understand all the bad reviews. It’s possible she got into healthcare bc she cared about people at one point, but it’s clearly not the case now. Her decisions seem to be based on what works best for her, not what is in the best interest of her patients. While family involvement is important in caring for the “whole” patient, she does not appear to listen to or value the importance of family concerns, IF you are even able to get her to call you back. When your loved one is in the care of people who are supposed to be trusted, it’s very disappointing when they can’t be.

As a mental health professional, I feel Dr. Shah needs a lot of work in both explaining the rationale behind her treatment recommendations and doing so with empathy and a "warm" demeanor. I met with Dr. Shah apx. 10 times and unfortunately found her to be inauthentic and, more importantly, unable to clearly explain rationale for medication choices and dosages. Had to get a second opinion and I am thankful I did. I hate to leave a poor review but she just doesn't impress as a clinician and seems to need more experience.

I don’t understand how Jyoti Shah even has a medical degree. She does not care about her patients in the slightest and is blatantly biased. She is the medical director of the eating disorder program at Linden Oaks and yet does not seem to have any knowledge of how to treat eating disorders or how to effectively communicate with patients who are struggling with an eating disorder.

Absolutely terrible Doctor, un experienced enough to treat childeren and doesnt care about there emotions, doesn't lesson, think parents are stuiped and has no respect to parents and guardians . She thinks she knows every thing, never ready, we hate Linden Oaks because of her treatmmet style, her treatment doesnt work and kids get worest and kids dont get better actually get worest. Stay away from her. Wish she gets humiliated and fired soon.

Dr. Shah talks down to her patients and does not listen. She has preconceived notions and is biased. Beware. Please speak up if you are mistreated by Dr. Shah.
