Thank you Dr Shah.
I asked Dev about my acne and he was so accomodating and really friendly. He is one of the nicest doctors we have at Bishopswood and I always recommend him to patients. They always come to the front desk and say what a nice man!
Thank you very much for your comment it is much appreciated!
We were recommended to see Dev Shah because he so good with my friends mum. He was definitely worth the wait and took everthing on board. He even let my mum draw on his phone and talked through all the issues she was having with her skin cancers. He is lovely man and true professional - I would highly recommend him
Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review , I am glad your Mother enjoyed drawing on my phone!
Quite simply one of the nicest doctors I have ever met, it felt like we were not there about my skin but just a friendly meeting! After a lovely consultation he managed to ascertain that I was indeed at risk of developing problems and that I need a biopsy from my forehead. After the biopsy he found a skin cancer and I have had something called mohs which has healed with an invisble scar! Thank you so much
Dev Shah has all the trimmings of a top harley street consultant, but talks to you on a level that is clear and understandable.
He was kind and efficient, he nailed my diagnosis straightaway and also found a melanoma on my back that he promptly removed - He probably saved my life!
I'm indebted to him and his excellent service, I would highly recommend him.
