Mr Rajesh Shah

Written by a member of staff at Hull Royal Infirmary

What a lovely doctor we saw him with my daughter who has severe learning difficulties, he was lovely with her and very understanding and he listened to us and our concerns. The thing that stands out though is my daughter left her flower hair bobble in his office and we hadn't realised, Vicky received a personal letter a few days later from him enclosing the bobble and saying he had found it and was concerned in case it was her favourite and he wanted her to have it back. For a very busy doctor to take the time to do that for my daughter speaks volumes of his care and respect for his patients. Thank you Mr Shah your kindness ment so much to us, from Vicky, her parents and her carers.

Mr Shah recently performed spinal surgery to correct a collapsed disc & out of line spine which had been causing me excruciating back, leg & knee pain for over 12 months. He was friendly, informative, clear & honest in his assessment of my condition as well as the detail of the operation & the improvement I should expect. He has a reputation for meticulous care which was born out by the way he handled my case from the beginning & especially when it came to 'the crunch' of the actual operation which was very successful giving me an almost pain-free life again after the inevitable trauma of the procedure & after-effects had subsided. He also goes out of his way to see his patients in person prior to surgery which I found very reassuring. I would not hesitate in recommending Mr Shah to anyone needing the surgery in which he specialises.

I have complete confidence in Mr Shah. He explained my condition and the procedure I needed to give me back my quality of life . He was one of the first people to come and see me when I was taken back to my room after the operation and explained to me that the operation had gone well . He visited me the following day and helped to get me out of bed and walk about. I have just been to see him for my follow up a year on , he showed me my recent x rays and explained them to me . I have nothing but praise for Mr Shah
