“I can’t rave enough about Dr. Shah’s bedside manner, efficiency, and surgical skill! He took care of our daughter who tore her ACL playing basketball. He came recommended from another players family. He spent time with us, showed us pictures and walked our angst filled teenage daughter through the surgery the recovery and was very compassionate when we started crying out of fear. We had surgery at a surgical center and it went great. She barely even took one pain pill! He even called us later that day and then saw us in the office to show us pictures and to make sure we got everything we needed after surgery. She is now 3 months into it and is already running and building up strength. There is no one better that we met, and we took her to 2 different ACL surgeons. The staff, check in and check out were also pleasant and the assistants in the office also helped us with insurance issues. The office is clean and clearly a lot of people go see Dr. Shah for their ailments and injuries as well as the other very nice doctors at Parkview. Great place.”

“Dr. Shah took care of my shoulder when I fall. He put a brand new shoulder in me – a shoulder replacement (who knew that existed!). He took care of me very well when I went to first see him, he was patient, explained the problem, showed my on pictures in the walls in the room where the broken bones were and then he explained that treating in sling or plates and screws wouldn’t work well for me and also explained why which made sense. I stayed at palos hospital for 24 hours after surgery, but my pain is so much better thanks to him and his assistant Mr. Nate. They really knew how to take care of me and made sure that the nurses knew what to do as well. I am out of the sling after a few weeks and therapy is going well. I recommend him to all my friends at the palos fitness center. Dr. Shah is a very good doctor, caring and very good surgeon.”

Excellent Dr. Shah

“Dr. Shah did excellent surgery on our son after he injured his knee ACL ligament during football game. He was referred to us by the school’s athletic trainer, and everything from the first appointment to the surgery and afterwards was taken cared of expertly by Dr. Shah. I appreciate his help and care and skilled hands so much.”

“I had an excellent experience with Dr. Shah at Parkview. I came to see him for unrelenting shoulder pain for a long time only to find that I tore my rotator cuff tendon. He discussed with my how and why and more importantly how to get the pain to go away so I could sleep and get back to normal. I decided on arthroscopic surgery and I am doing great. Surgery wasn’t as bad as others told me it would be and Dr. Shah did great work. Highly recommend him, he is a surgical artist!”

“Torn ACL. Went to multiple experts and we chose and went with Dr. Shah. He came highly regarded by other athletes and families. He spent our office visits explaining everything from the injury, the MRI, the surgery, and the recovery and assured me that soccer was still in my future. Did great, playing soccer, rehab was long and a lot of effort, but well worth it. Saw 4 other families and kids or athletes having acl surgery the same day we were! They also had a good experience and had a great outcome with Dr. Shah. Dr. Shah is the best with expert surgical hands and technique as well as his bedside and true caring bedside manner. Highly regarded and recommended!”

“I have been seen as have my family by Dr. Shah for some shoulder and elbow problems after being recommended by some former professional athletes that he has treated. I can say he is highly regarded and it shows. He is fast quick and smart. His nurses are very nice and take a good history, Dr. Shah reviews and asks some pertinent questions followed by an exam and reviews any tests like xrays or mris that are done. He puts all together brilliantly and explains the diagnosis and treatment well. Whether he recommends surgery or no surgery he is able to tell us the latest treatments and the latest research…Office staff is pleasant with smiles and they truly care as opposed to some big name places. Most importantly, Dr. Shah and his staff are better than any other place we’ve gone to when it comes to getting us better!”

“Tore my knee up bad playing soccer with multiple injured ligaments and cartilage. I saw two other doctors before Dr. Shah. The other ones didn’t seem very confident and they couldn’t answer my questions after I looked on the internet as to what my injury meant and what I may need. They would just right me off and say “”this is how I do it.” Dr. Shah spent 10 minutes asking me questions and then a thorough exam on both my knees and he looked at my xrays and MRIs. He then spent 30 more minutes explaining the injury, the treatment options, what he would recommend, how he would do the surgery, then also spent time telling me all the phases of rehab. He even went into specifics that I didn’t know about. Needless to say I had a list of 10 questions and he hit all of them without me having to ask him anything. He clearly is the expert in his field of knee surgery and sports surgeries. His staff was just as awesome and spent so much time with me from Margo when she scheduled my surgery and also Michelle and Carlin. Surgery went great, I’m back to playing soccer and Nate his assistant in surgery and the office was just as thorough. Its hard to find such a well oiled machine in the surgeon as well as the entire staff. Kudos to Parkview Ortho for finding Dr. Shah to help all of us in the south burbs!”

Great Surgeon for Work Injuries

Vitals.com

“Dr. Shah came highly recommended from a co-worker who also injured their shoulder at work. At first my boss tried to force me to go to the work recommended doctor, who probably was just paid by my company to be bad and not help me and get me to back to work. But as my pain and suffering worsened, I asked one of my co-workers who told me that I can see whoever I want and Dr. Shah was heavily recommended. Dr. Shah was great. He ordered all the appropriate tests and discovered the injury at work ripped my rotator cuff completely off the bone. He performed surgery through a scope with tiny little portals and fixed the whole thing! It took a few months of recovery but the pain wasn’t that bad and I’m back in the gym and back at work. He was awesome and I got my life back!”

Since he thought it was a torn ligament his office staff helped me get an MRI in a timely fashion and he was right. I saw him a second time and he explained the surgery in detail and the recovery and asked about my family and my job to make sure I would be ok. Surgery was last week and I am doing great.

He went through what the recovery and rehab would be like, how long I would be off of work and showed me pictures. I was able to go home the same day from the surgery center in a brace and an ice machine. Therapy has been going well, and I making improvements every day and am close to having my normal life.”

“Excellent bedside manner and made my daughter who tore her ACL playing club soccer feel at ease. He walked us through the surgery and what to expect. He does surgery on a lot of athletes and answered most of our questions without hesitation. Very confident with our decision to have him as our surgeon. Update: our girl is doing great 2 weeks after surgery she is walking, no crutches and is doing great in therapy. The physical therapist said she wasn’t surprised because most of the athletes in the area have dr shah do their ACL surgery and that compared to other doctors doing ACLs, his are the best prepared educated and also do a lot better.”

Personality puts you at ease

Healthgrades

“Immediately upon arrival, I was sent for x-rays. Once back at the office, I was called in immediately and a nurse took my history. 5 to 10 minutes later, Dr. Shah arrived, and his personality is such that you feel at ease. He explained what he was doing throughout the exam, and then took the time to illustrate what he believed to be the issue with my knee. He informed me of the different possible diagnoses (dependent upon an MRI) and treatments, and he did not rush through the exam.”

“Dr. Shah has wonderful “bedside” manners. In addition, you are never rushed during your appointment and he takes his time answering all questions as well as explaining what the situation is. I highly recommend Dr. Shah for your knee, shoulder or elbow orthopedic needs.”

“Repaired my rotator cuff in my shoulder that I injured at work. He walked me through the process even went out of his way to discuss my care with my attorney when I asked if he would and it helped my workers compensation claim go though as fast as possible. Surgery went great and I had an excellent result and am back to work and playing baseball with my kids without any problems. I will send all my friends and family to him. He has offices in Palos Heights and Oak Lawn, but I drove all the way from Mokena to see him because he is worth it.”

Great ACL doctor

Vitals.com

“He performed my husband’s ACL surgery. He answered all of our questions before we even asked him. He is smart personable and the nurses we know that work in the operating room at christ hospital all say he is the best acl surgeon and shoulder surgeon there. That is why we went to him. He did not disappoint and walked us through everything from the first visit all the way through getting my husband back to work as well as back to playing basketball.”

Extremely knowledgable

Healthgrades

“Dr, Shah has performed both of my knee reconstructions (same knee). He is extremely knowledgeable and helps patient through the graft decision making process, planning for pre and post surgery, and is able to answer ANY questions you may have regarding your operation. Knee surgery is also a 2-way street IMO, and a patient should come prepared to appointments with questions to help your surgeon make determinations for course of treatment and best possible outcomes.”

“He replaced my shoulder 5 months ago. I’m already playing golf, exercising and bowling without pain now. Only regret is that I wished I saw him sooner and did the surgery sooner. He was one of three shoulder surgeons I saw and I am so glad he was referred to me. Better bedside manner, confidence, and intelligence than other surgeons I saw. Also he was patient answering all of my wife’s questions. I went home the next day and was pain free from the shoulder pain the next day as well. We recommend him to all of our friends and family that live in Lockport Frankfort and Mokena and they all say he is worth the drive. He is in Palos heights.”

“Dr. Shah is awesome! He’s smart, funny, great bed-side manner and listens.   I went to him about 1.5 years ago with a knee issue – and that eventually go resolved. My sister had some surgery done by him, and hasn’t had a problem since. I went back today due to a wrist issue. Again, Dr. Shah, was just awesome!! Parkview is nice, clean, well-organized – and you are in and out. Everyone that I’ve dealt with there has been friendly and professional:  from making an appt, billing, scheduling, xray, and MRI. Really great service!! If you need an orthopaedic doctor – I would recommend Dr. Shah and Parkview!”

Great 2nd Opinion and Considerate

Came to the correct diagnosis quickly and discussed different treatment options and gave me his reccomendation. I am now 3 months out from my rotator cuff repair and am back to playing golf and tennis with minimal soreness. My strength is great. He also took into account my schedule for surgery and even did my surgery on a day he normally doesn’t because he was pretty booked up. Great personality. Highly recommended and came highly recommended to me from an athletic trainer.”

“Fixed my ACL and I am in rehab and I am functioning better, recovering quicker, no pain, and tiny incisions compared to everyone else that I talk to that had their ACLs done elsewhere. He did a great job on my knee and I thank him and my friends for recommending him!I initially went to a downtown academic center but that doctor didn’t give me any options on how to fix my ACL. Dr. Shah discussed all the different graft options and let me decide which graft to use after telling me the strengths and weaknesses of all the grafts. He clearly was way more knowledgeable than the ‘downtown’ guy who only knew how to do an ACL one way. I did some research and found out that Dr. Shah teaches other surgeons on ACL, knee, and shoulder surgery. I made the right decision going with him and am better off because of it!”

Great Sports Doc

We used to have to go to Rush to get the best, but now we have the best in the southwest suburbs. In fact we were in the waiting room talking to some other people and he had patients from Chicago coming out to the suburbs to see him. Once you meet him and the patients that he has treated, it is no wonder why so many people want him to be their orthopaedic surgeon. Keep up the good work Dr. Shah!”

Thank You Dr. Shah!

“Excellent bedside manner. Very bright and his reputation precedes him as an excellent doctor and surgeon. I had another doctor do me knee scope and repair ligaments, but my knee was never normal and always felt loose. Dr Shah did a difficult reconstruction on my knee that other orthopaedic surgeons in the area didn’t know anything about and weren’t able to help me. I’m now back to work as a fireman and have no problems and even started playing 16″ softball again! Now that Dr Shah is in the South and the southwest suburban and Chicagoland area I feel like we have one of the brightest and most capable minds for sports injuries in all of the Chicagoland area. Thanks Dr Shah for taking care of me and thank god I found him! I refer all of my co-workers and friends to him with their injuries.”

Wonderful Experience

“Dr. Shah was a calming influence on our high school daughter and us when she tore her ACL. He took time to discuss everything about surgery and empowered us with all the possible options for the type of graft to use and also empowered us to make the best informed decision by giving us a lot of information that was well organized. He was referred to us by another family and we are so glad that we got him as our surgeon. She is now 5 months out from surgery and is doing great and already back on the field. It was a rare find for us to get such a great surgeon with a great personality and bedside manner and well-trained. We have never felt safer!”

Another shouldersurgeon in the area operated on my rotator cuff and it re-tore in 1 month. Dr. Shah gave me multiple options and was able to get me back to work and playing recreational golf and tennis. I am so happy and lucky to have found him to fix my shoulder. He guided me through the recovery and rehab process and I’m back to doing everything I want to with no pain.”
