“I believe in a patient-centered approach to healthcare. I focus on the ’why’ behind my patients’ concerns, in order to provide them meaningful and effective health solutions.

I believe that a holistic approach to treating patients, addressing not only their physical condition, but also their psychological, social, and spiritual needs, is the key to maintaining long-lasting health.

I look forward to being at the service of my community!”

Dr. Shahata is the first doctor I've had who sits down and maintains eye contact while we talk. He answers all my questions and solved a serious health issue the first time around.The office staff are friendly and helpful. I get prompt phone calls with test results. I'm very lucky I found him!

Dr. Shehata has been a wonderful doctor caring for my mother over the past year and a half. He has helped her and our family through two very frightening episodes. His bedside manner is nothing but outstanding. He was born to be a caregiver and we are lucky to have him caring for Mom. Thank you

By far one of the kindest and most professional doctors I have ever met. Technical knowledge is crucial, of course, but having a doctor treat you with dignity and compassion is almost as important, and Dr. Shehata succeeds on both front.

Had a great experience with Dr Shehata!! Dr Shehata is kind, well spoken, patient, and a wonderful human being. His excellent bedside manner made my dad feel at ease and comfortable with the process. Dr Shehata was incredibly personable, thorough, and informative; He handled all my dad concerns with kindness and compassion in a comprehensive manner. The front office lady was very polite and kind as well, helping my dad with his limited english scheduling all his appointments. Thank you so much, Dr Shehata and Team!! Mohamad Kouedr

Dr. Shehata is not just an exceptional physician. Dr. Shehata cares. His attentiveness, kindness, and extensive preparation make every visit a positive and reassuring experience. What sets Dr. Shehata apart is his genuine care for patients as real individuals, recognizing what it means to be a true healthcare professional. Being a doctor is not just a job but a calling to serve and uplift others. Being a good doctor is about making each patient feel heard, understood, and valued. Being a great doctor is about going beyond mere treatment, fostering a holistic approach to healing. I highly recommend Dr. Shehata for anyone seeking for a great doctor. A doctor who cares and is always there for them.
