Excellent cardiologist able to undertake the most difficult coronary intervention procedures
Professor Francisco Leyva-Leon
Dr Shahid is holistic, engaged and patient-centred. He has particular expertise in management of coronary disease but is well equipped to deal with a range of cardiology presentations. He is also an excellent colleague to work with, receptive and very timely in his correspondence. I'd recommend him unreservedly.
