I had my surgery 1 year ago and had my prostate removed with stage 3 cancer. Prior to my surgery Dr. Shah was very supportive at various meetings. On the day of the surgery he came up to my room 2 hours after the surgery and he walked the halls with me. I was home in 2 days and he personally called me everyday for a few day to see how I was progressing and answer any questions that I had. My cancer was aggressive and had spread outside the prostate but luckily it seems that Dr. Shah was able to get everything. I have had 2 PSA screenings since my surgery and my PSA is ZERO. I highly recommend Dr. Shah and his team.

Never have we had a doctor that cared about his patients as much as Dr. Shah. He took time with us to explain our options, never felt rushed in the appts. From the time we learned my husband had prostate cancer, Dr. Shah was accessible to answer questions, personally followed-up with phone calls after the surgery. He also has excellent staff working with him at the Cancer center. Dr. Shah genuinely cares for his patients.
