Seemed really nice. Didn’t treat me like just another old person, respectful of my questions. Appreciate that very much.

Dr. Shah & everyone at Valley Orthopedic were absolutely top notch, professional and a pleasure to work with.
I had an old rotator cuff injury and at 74 yrs. young I was experiencing bad pain & loss of quite a bit of “range of motion”.
Dr. Shah performed a Complete Shoulder Replacement surgery on July 16, 2025.
I did have pain after the procedure just like I was told. Within about 2-3 weeks the pain started to subside. I had 6 weeks total in a sling. The pain was completely gone by the time the sling came off.
Followed up with physical therapy for several months to regain strength & range of motion.
I highly recommend Dr. Shah for orthopedic surgery. He is easy to talk to, straight forward and most importantly an amazingly skilled surgeon.
Thank you Dr. Shah and the wonderful staff at Valley Orthopedic Institute!

My initial visit was thorough and Dr. Taylor recognized that my condition had been going for a while and he chose to aggressively treat me, this was immensely appreciated. He listened to my concerns, did an exam, and then discussed a treatment plan. It was amazing to have someone listen and take me seriously.

Dr. Shaw is probably the best, smartest orthopedic surgeon along with Dr. Taylor, who has operated on my toe. Anyway, Dr. Shaw is knowledgeable, attentive, friendly, professional. We are blessed to have a Dr. of his expertise and expertise in the Antelope Valley. I could not recommend Dr. Shaw any more highly. If you have issues you ARE in great hands with Dr. Shaw and Dr. Taylor. I just can’t honestly think of anything they could do medically any better. I’ll try, add man wipes in the restroom, and I’m not sure they don’t already have them. Plus Holly in the back, is wonderful! And the ladies in the front office always remember me, which really helps. I spaced on my recent appointment, called an hour late, was told don’t stress, “ I’ll fix it, you can reschedule.” So I did. When I have issues with joints, and ortho stuff I come here! God Bless you all VOI. Stephen Drake

Dr. Taylor is a caring, competent physician. He immediately took care of my concerns and came up with a plan to remedy my severe hip pain. Couldn’t ask for better care.
