I have been coming to the Irvington office for years. Dr Shah has been great, checking my heart and lower extremities. Will be doing some tests with him in the future. Look forward to getting better.

I visited Dr. Shah's office recently! He is a very humble and a very knowledgeable doctor! He explained the procedure very well to me. I feel really good after the treatment!

Dr. Shah was so great explaining everything to me and had technicians to translate. He thoroughly examined me asking questions about my heart and will be seeing me for yearly check ups. Trust him with his work.

Apex Heart and Vascular is a great office. Everyone is very courteous and looking out for the patients. I felt like I was a family member and got a very warm treatment. I got my medications refilled right away and got all my concerns addressed. The doctor and staff have excellent bedside manner!

I have had severe leg pain, swelling and varicose veins for almost 2 decades and no improvement despite seeing multiple providers. I ended up seeing Dr. Shah and he immediately recognized the problem with my circulation and scheduled me to fix it very promptly. The procedure took less than 20 minutes and I feel incredibly improved with my leg pain! The color and swelling have improved and the ulcers on my legs also disappeared! DR SHAH IS TRULY A MIRACLE WORKER!!! I'D HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE WITH HEART OR CIRCULATION PROBLEMS!! FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!!!

Dr. Shah has been my cardiologist and vascular specialist for a while now. I had significant heart blockages in 2 arteries but Dr. Shah opened them up in under an hour via my wrist and protected me from having to go for a complex heart surgery! It's been a while since my stents and I am feeling better than ever before! He has amazing bedside manners and the entire staff is so pleasant and fun to work with! I highly recommend him and his team!

This week I visited Dr. Shah's office for a Stress Test for my father. Dr. Nicole was very attentive and covered all bases, she explained the exam in Spanish which was extremely beneficial. It was a great experience for us knowing that follow-ups were encouraged and appointments were made right away. The office is organized and will be coming here again in the future.

My first time at Dr Shah’s office was a world away from previous experiences elsewhere. It was good to be treated with professionalism and care. When I say the doctor and all the other employees of the office made me feel that I was in safe hands and even made me smile when I left, then you can believe they are the best. I am truly grateful and won’t get that awful feeling of dread the next time I get sick and am unable to see my own physician. I appreciated their follow-up and willingness to answer questions also. A big thank you to all of them. Coming here is like dealing with trusted family. Would not consider changing doctors.

Dr. Shah is an amazing doctor that helps you feel comfortable with his work. He is always sure of what he does and says and that makes me feel good. He also speaks in a way where it makes you feel motivated to get better. He is a sweet person with all his patients.
