Philosophy:
People are wary because too many surgeons suggest surgery at the first option. The most effective way to deliver quality care and earn your patients' confidence is to explore all treatment possibilities before deciding on surgery. When you do that, you earn patients' respect. When you educate patients, they feel more comfortable and empowered." Dr/ Shahid makes a strong effort to get to know his patients. "While the internet can provide valuable information, ultimately the practice of medicine is a human endeavor. Beyond my training and technology, my biggest priority is in seeing my patients and managing their expectations to have a positive impact on their lives.
