I first met Dr Shah last month at Altrincham hospital when I was struggling with a leg ulcer and needed advice from the rheumatology consultant about my medication.
She took a picture of my wound and said I could have some medication that wouldn't interfere with the healing process. 2 weeks later I returned, the wound was much better.
Dr Shah listened to my concerns and gave me the treatment that I needed when I was at a low point.
Returning today, ongoing treatment is tapered down and I am very happy with the progress made and the encouragement from Dr. Shah.

I have suffered with joint and muscle pain and lethargy for years. Dr Shah is the first doctor to really listen to my issues and take them seriously. I am certain that she will help me find a better way to live with them. Thank you.

I am 29 years old and have suffered from rheumatoid arthritis since my early 20s. I was referred to Dr Shah this year through the NHS and I cannot praise her enough. I felt my care was extremely lacking and had no where to turn to, until seeing Dr Shah. She is a lovely, caring and warm lady and has been so attentive to me. Ensuring I receive all appropriate tests (bloods tests,x rays etc) and if I have a flare up she has seen me immediately, working with me on how to ease my pain and reassuring my anxieties. I feel my future is more positive with my illness and that is thanks to Dr Shah! I couldn’t recommend her more I always leave my appointments feeling more positive and happy!
