Dr. Sunil Shah is an Ophthalmologist based in Ahmedabad, specialising in phacoemulsification for cataract removal. Dr. Shah started his private practice 20 years ago with the launch of his eye hospital at Maninagar. Five years later he opened a second hospital at Sabarmati.
Dr. Shah completed his undergraduate and postgraduate medical studies and training at the Government Medical College in Surat.
