    I feel pretty frustrated by my experience at UAB Ortho. Dr. Shah is a friendly guy but i dont feel like he took my life into consideration at all— i am a highly active person who does a high impact sport and he gave me no insight into the recovery process. He immediately advocated to cast my ankle for a sprain which as far as i can tell is an outdated practice that ultimately slowed my recovery. He also failed to introduce the med students/residents/fellows (unsure) who came into my appointment which is disrespectful. Overall, i feel i would have been better off not going to a dr especially bc his approach to recovery is to use common sense. I will not be back to uab ortho and will not recommend it to anyone in need of an orthopedist. It’s really disappointing to see a doctor who doesn’t take quality of life into patient care.
