The first day that I went to your office, I was there Before any other patients. I think the staff might not have quite been awake yet. And it seemed that they were cold. But upon further interactions and more appointments, I found The office to be friendly and Professional. I would definitely recommend you.

There was little to no wait time to see the doctor. He listens, asks questions and offered alternatives. Great “bed side manner”. The office staff and nurses were helpful and kind. It’s obvious they all enjoy their work. Thank you!

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!
