Testimonials

Caring for the next generation

Dr. Shah had the honor and privilege during her medical training to work closely with Mother Teresa in Calcutta. “That life changing experience reminds me on a daily basis to not only bring with me my knowledge of Pediatrics but also my compassion and respect for the children and families I am privileged to take care of.”

As Mother Teresa said, “God doesn’t ask us to do great things, he asks us to do small things with great love.” This has resonated with me all of my professional life.
