Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself is a blur, but I remember Dr. Shah being really clear about what to expect after. The pain plan he set up actually worked—I wasn't just knocked out, I could get up and move around which helped a ton. The follow-up call from his team to check on my meds was a nice touch. Still sore, but feeling more human each day. (Patient of Dr. Rakeshkumar)
I've been seeing Dr. Shah for my diabetes and blood pressure for about five years now. What I appreciate is that he remembers me, remembers my numbers, and doesn't just jump to change my meds every time. He listens to how I'm actually managing things day-to-day. In a place with so many doctors coming and going, having someone consistent who knows your whole history makes all the difference. (Patient of Dr. Rakeshkumar)
Needed a general check-up and got an appointment with Dr. Shah. He's good. Straight to the point, answered my questions without any fluff. Explained things in a way that made sense. Parking at Burjeel was a nightmare that day, but the actual visit was efficient. (Patient of Dr. Rakeshkumar)
I went in for what I thought was just persistent heartburn. I was a bit nervous, thinking it was probably stress. Dr. Shah didn't dismiss it. He asked a lot of questions—about the pain, when it happened, even what I'd eaten. He said given my age and family history, he wanted to be thorough, which I appreciated. He ordered some tests right there at Burjeel to rule things out. Turns out it was a minor issue with my medication dosage, which we fixed. The whole thing felt careful, not rushed. He took the time to connect dots I wouldn't have. (Patient of Dr. Rakeshkumar)
