Roshan P Shah's Online Review Report Card

Years of suffering with my painful hip, I consulted with Dr Shah and was informed I would need a full hip replacement. Dr Shah was very informative as what the procedure would entail. Dr Shah used a newer technique which allowed me to leave the hospital the same day. Recovery also was faster and with minimal pain and less usage of pain medication. I highly recommend using Dr Shah for any orthopedic surgery.

I just want to thank Dr.shah and his team for there amazing work. They took great care of my mom, made her feel safe and comfortable before ;during and after surgery, also answered all of our questions. My mom couldn’t even walk a block before surgery and now she can go to the mall and work out like she used to. You gave her her life back and we can’t thank you enough.

Dr. Shah must be an excellent doctor. My boss insisted I help him to leave a review for the doctor. He wants to say, "I am close to 90 years old and I was hesitant about having knee surgery. I finally visited Dr. Shah and he advised me to have a partial knee replacement. He did a great job and within a short period of time I was able to walk again without pain and I highly recommend him".Bob Rubinstein

Dr. Shah read my hip x-rays, knew what he was looking at, and how to fix it. I was scheduled for my hip replacement within 2 weeks. I was given precise instructions (I recommend adhering the pre/post op diet, taking the vitamins, etc.) I was admitted to NY Presbyterian Hospital at 9 am and went home the same day at 6:30 pm. As warned by his affable and skilled team, the second day would be uncomfortable, and to stay ahead of discomfort with my prescriptions. On the third day I went out for a few hours. By the second week I transitioned to a cane and walked my hallways and outside, and began working remotely. By the third week I was lifting the affected leg to trim nails, put on shoes, etc. It's been one month since surgery, and since I have a short bus ride to my office, I am returning to work tomorrow. I have no hip pain, and residual muscle soreness in my thigh and tenderness at the 4" incision site are managed by OTC pain meds. I highly recommend Dr. Shah and his team.

Very professional and informative doctor. He did a fantastic job on my mother's knee replacement. Staff is very friendly and what is also extremely important to know is that he is respectful of your time.

I am tremendously grateful that I learned about Dr. Shah just before my scheduled knee replacement with someone else. His examination alone showed me how thorough and careful he is about his work. I have since had both complete knee replacements done by him and he is TRULY masterful and brilliant at his art! My legs were so bowed I did not really believe he could straighten them as he said he could. He did! For the first time in years, I can walk quickly again without pain- only two months after my second replacement. Dr. Shah is a wonderful human being and made himself easily accessible in a way that was surprising as well as reassuring. I did not hesitate to contact him when I had concerns and his whole team was also wonderful to work with. I very strongly recommend Dr. Roshan Shah!

I was fortunate enough to find Dr. Shah through a glowing recommendation from my brother-in-law who had both hips and both knees replaced by him and couldn't have been happier. I would say the same for sure! Dr. Shah was very caring and understanding and he took his time in explaining everything to me precisely. When I had my x-rays completed, he wanted more detail. Before I had my right hip x-rayed again, Dr. Shah knelt down in front of me and positioned my hip himself, rotating it slightly. The X-ray was taken, Dr. Shah reviewed it immediately and told the technician that was exactly what he wanted. His surgery on my right hip was superb. I was carefully climbing 4 steps hours after the operation and was able to return home the same day! After 9 weeks, I felt almost perfect. At 11 weeks, I have completed PT and I can honestly say it feels as though I never had a hip replacement. I feel very, very fortunate to have had Dr. Shah as my surgeon and send my tremendous thanks!

I will not recommend Dr. Shah. Poor bedside manner. Did not listen to my concerns.

I can't say enough about how talented and smart this man is - My knee replacement was absolutely meticulous and I'm going in for the other one soon. I'm thrilled with the results and feel very lucky to have found him.

Dr Shah is an excellent surgeon specializing in knee and hip. Highly recommended. We were also really impressed and comforted by his lovely bedside manner and open communication with us. Very grateful.

Just had my second knee replacement with Dr. Shah. He is by far the best orthopedist I’ve ever encountered. He and his staff are absolutely up to date with cutting edge procedures, as well as bringing a caring, kind and good-humored attitude to patient interactions. My pain management and my ultimate outcome(s) have been much better that I’d anticipated. If I could award Dr. Shah six or more stars, I certainly would.

I have been seeing Dr. Shah for about 3 years for the arthritis in my hips and my knees. In December 2020, at 52 we talked at length about replacing my hip. I felt it was affecting my quality of life. My follow up question was can he do both on the same day. We discussed it and went ahead with replacing both at the same time. Best decision I ever made. Dr. Shah and his entire team were very kind, professional, helpful and organized. I highly recommend Dr. Shah as a skilled orthpaedic surgeon and am very grateful for the time he spent with me educating me about the decision making process while never feeling pressured. Go Team Shah!!

I visited Dr. Shah for a second opinion. On reviewing the X-rays, I was impressed by the detailed explanation of his findings, and how he could help me to improve my quality of life. Partial knee replacement was done on both knees, 6 weeks apart.Dr Shah’s bedside manner and follow-up post surgery was good on both occasions. His staff were responsive/helpful. I am very pleased with the outcome of both surgeries and have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Shah to others.

In a word, SUPERB. Ambulatory procedure for hip-replacement surgery (admitted and discharged on the same day). Walking with ease in less than two weeks, nearly perfect after three weeks. Amazing. I cannot imagine a better surgeon than Dr. Shah. Utterly professional, attentive and available to address questions or concerns at any time. I sent Dr. Shah an email one evening with some post-operative questions. He called me in less than five minutes. Excellent staff. If you have a hip-replacement, you should ask Dr. Shah to introduce you to the Columbia Doctors physical therapist Adrian ("AJ") to request a lymphatic massage a week or so after surgery. It does wonders at reducing or even eliminating normal post-surgery swelling. Magical. Any patient under Dr. Shah's care will be exceptionally well served. Top notch credentials which Dr. Shah lives up to in every respect.

I had partial knee replacement surgery. I discussed the surgery with Dr. Shah in my first visit. He answered all my questions and gave me confidence in his expertise. The surgery went smoothly and my recovery has been swift. I had thorough post-ops with Dr Shah and trust his dedication and ability.

I was introduced to Dr. Shah for hip-replacement surgery by a mutual friend. In a word, SUPERB. Ambulatory procedure (admitted and discharged on the same day). Walking with ease after less than two weeks. I cannot imagine a better surgeon than Dr. Shah. Utterly professional, attentive and available to address questions or concerns at any time before or after surgery. Excellent staff. Any patient under his care will be exceptionally well-served. Top notch credentials which Dr. Shah lives up to in every respect.

I visited Dr. Shah initially for a second opinion. I was impressed that his office took more X-rays of my knees than the previous doctor. Dr. Shah explained to me fully his findings and how he could help me to be pain-free. Happy and relieved when advised surgery would be partial replacement, done 6 weeks apart (in 2019). His technical skills are impressive. Dr. Shah’s bedside manner, and follow-up was impeccable. He reached out to my son post-surgery, checking on my well-being. During rehab, I was happy Dr. Shah declined my request to do both knees at the same time. The office staff was friendly and responsive to my various calls and requests. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Shah to my family and friends. Now, if only I could be consistent in adhering to his instructions to do one (1) hour per day on the bike??

Dr. Shah is an excellent practioner. He is very knowledgeable and exceedingly kind. I am very glad that he performed my knee replacement. I was apprehensive about the procedure and he and his staff were very reassuring. I would highly recommend him

Dr. Shah was my surgeon for each of my knee replacements, left in 2019 and right in 2020. His work was thorough, very little scarring, and I have no lingering after effects, other than I am continuing my PT of course. That's the key to real success. His work was very good. I highly recommend Dr. Shah for this surgery.
