Dr Preeti Shah

Written by a patient at The Wilmslow Hospital

I was in crisis with symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and needed a solution for relief of pain and to allow the ability to work. An NHS referral was just not available despite the utmost help and fast-tracking. I had visited Dr Preeti Shah a few years previously with another related but short-term condition and knew that I could trust and depend upon her. I was able to make an appointment easily (kind and helpful assistance) to visit Dr Shah at the Wilmslow Hospital within the week and received a thorough examination and the treatments required. I have since visited Dr Shah at Trafford General where I am receiving excellent care and caring from both Dr Shah and the Rheumatology Nurse. I am fully committed to the NHS but just had to resort to a private appointment on that occasion. It was so worthwhile. Dr Shah counteracts the downsides of this condition with her vibrancy - really engaging with her patient, understanding the situation at that point and providing both treatments and other relevant solutions with compassion. Completely reassuring.

Following a recent diagnosis of Lupus I undertook some research and arranged a private consultation with Dr Shah. From the start to the end of the consultation I was made to feel comfortable. Dr Shah listened to my concerns and answered all of my queries. I didn't feel rushed and I felt as though she was genuinely concerned about my current symptoms and putting a plan in to place to help make me feel better. She considered all the information I had taken with me, she did a thorough examination and then we spoke at length. Thank you for making me feel at ease Dr Shah, especially at such an uncertain time in my life.

The doctor’s communication was excellent - both in listening carefully and clarifying where necessary, and in explaining the possible diagnoses and the alternatives for treatment.

I came in with joint pain. I saw Dr Shah. She diagnosed me with rheumatoid arthritis the same day. I was really scared and Dr Shah put me at ease and I feel 10 fold better. Dr Shah has given me confidence. I feel really comfortable in her presence. She has made my day. I had a full consultation, followed by ultrasound scan on my hands and a plan made. She was so efficient and went over and above my expectations. Having been worried sick, Dr Shah has really put my mind at rest, and I feel like a new woman.
