I have been plagued for years with a traumatic facial injury that left a large & invasive scar on my cheek bone. The scar pulled down a bit on my lower eye lid, preventing my eye from closing completely. Dr. Shah does beautiful work. He worked meticulously & carefully to release much of the scar & it has helped my appearance significantly. I emphasize how wonderful & competent he is & how supportive & professional his staff presents. All staff members seem to enjoy working here. There is no pretension here, only welcoming support from everyone.

I’m highly recommend and Thanking Dr. Shah for his outstanding work as a plastic surgeon. From my first consultation to my follow-up appointments, my experience at A New You, has been exceptional, and I am extremely satisfied with the results of my blepharoplasty.
Dr. Shah and his entire team provided exceptional care from the moment I walked in. The staff was always friendly, courteous, and accommodating, making me feel comfortable and valued as an individual, not just a patient.

Dr. Shah took the time to explain the procedure and the potential outcomes, and recovery process in clear terms, very transparent communication.

Dr. demonstrated a combination of artistic skill, and genuine compassion, Dr. even made sure after my surgery I had a direct phone number to contact him at any time. ( not the answering service) I feel and look Fantastic

Thank you

I had nasal surgery with Dr. Rajendra R. Shah after breaking my nose, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first appointment, he was patient, professional, and explained everything clearly so I felt comfortable and informed. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the care I received afterward was excellent. My breathing has improved a lot, and the appearance looks natural. Dr. Shah is truly skilled and caring — I highly recommend him.
