About me

"I enjoy the personal interaction I have with patients and sharing a laugh or two," states Dr. Anil K. Shah, Cardiologist with Shah Associates, "in addition to the early detection and primary prevention of serious cardiac disease." Dr. Shah is board certified in both Cardiology and Internal Medicine, though his concentration is on Cardiology. "Dr. A.K.," as he is known to his patients, completed his residency at Mercy Catholic Medical Center in Darby, PA, and his cardiology fellowship at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond. In his leisure time, Dr. A.K. enjoys spending time with his wife, Dr. Beena Shah, and their two young sons. He also enjoys a good game of cricket or ping pong.

    Good.

  • Jul 23, 2024

    This was a first visit so the Dr didn't really need to lay out treatment options or explain risks. I appreciated he didn't ask me the same questions that the nurse asked, but actually reviewed with me my intake paperwork and, where appropriate, asked for additional information.

  • Jul 20, 2024

    Dr. Anil Shah showed allot of concern & I would recommend this practice to anyone that would need a good CARDIOLOGIST
