  • Dr. Shah was a good man and a good doctor
    I was a patient for quite a while and he was
    Always patient and understanding. I’m glad
    He was my doctor. Always treated me as a
    Friend.

  • May he rest in peace and to his family I am so sorry for your lost. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

  • Dineshbhai’s enthusiasm towards life is unmatched. Elder brother of my wife and maternal uncle of my sons, he has been our friend, philosopher and guide throughout. A fatherly figure for my wife and simultaneously mischievous as brother and son to her !!! A unique bond which words cannot express, he shared with his sister. For all known or unknown persons he remained full of compassion and has helped many through his medical guidance even after retirement. All of us have lost part of our lives.

  • You were truly an amazing and caring doctor. My condolences to Nisha and your children. RIP Dr. Shah.
