Dr. Shah is a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty and aesthetic surgery of the face. A graduate of Brandeis University, he completed medical school and residency in Head and Neck Surgery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine–Montefiore Medical Center, followed by fellowship training with some of Manhattan's premier facial plastic surgeons on Park Avenue. His practice is built on a deep respect for facial anatomy and function, paired with an artist's eye for balance and proportion.
His fellowship training placed him at the side of some of the most sought-after facial plastic surgeons in the country. He trained in rhinoplasty under Steven Pearlman, Dara Liotta, and Moustafa Mourad, and in facial rejuvenation surgery under Neil Gordon and Sam Rizk. In these Park Avenue practices, he learned to operate at the level demanded by a clientele — including public figures, models, and discerning patients from around the world — for whom only the most refined, natural-looking results are acceptable. That standard, absorbed firsthand from surgeons entrusted with the world's most scrutinized faces, now defines his own approach to every patient who sits in his chair.
That artistic and technical sensibility traces back further than his medical training. As a child, Dr. Shah was drawn to woodworking — building projects by hand, learning early on what makes a structure stable and lasting versus merely decorative. That same instinct, still very much alive in his workshop today, shapes how he approaches every case: understanding what holds a structure together before considering how to refine its form. It's this union of engineering and artistry that defines his surgical philosophy — results that are not only beautiful, but built to endure.
