I had been struggling for 6 months with an undiagnosed autoimmune condition which Dr. Shah was able to correctly identify on the first appointment. After being passed from pillar to post it was great relief to finally speak to someone caring and able to promptly start treatment to reverse the condition.

Treated by Dr Shah on the NHS at Wilmslow Health Centre. Dr Shah is a very kind and competent professional able to impart complicated information clearly and concisely. Treatment plan was followed up by telephone during the pandemic and recovery from the condition occurred within 18 months. Would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Shah.

I had been struggling with debilitating fatigue for 3 years without a proper diagnosis when I spoke to Dr Shah. I was at a really low point, had been bed bound for several weeks with my mental/emotional health really fragile. I was despairing of ever getting any better. She listened carefully to how I had been (I rambled at great length!) and asked some really pertinent questions that helped me to see the underlying traumas that had resulted in my complete loss of faith in my own body and mind - and how that had manifested in the very severe physical symptoms I was experiencing. I am now on the path to recovery, feeling a lot of hope, learning to trust in my body again and addressing the deep wounds that led me to this place, finding a lot of healing in the journey. It is slow but steady, and I am so grateful that I was listened to and reassured and most of all given hope in what felt like an extremely scary situation.

Dr Shah is the only rheumatologist that I have ever felt has truly listened to me. Although i still do not have a definitive diagnosis I feel that she is exploring treatment options to enable me to carry on working.
Dr Shah is approachable and makes you feel at ease.
Keep up the good work.
