Dr. Shahs Commitment and Curiosity reflects excellent care for our patients

A patient was admitted from a skilled nursing facility. It was noted that the patient had a chronic foley catheter that had been placed after a surgical procedure for urinary retention a couple of months earlier. 

Dr. Shah questioned whether the patient needed the chronic foley catheter. After researching the history of the chronic catheter, he ordered voiding trials and urecholine. Voiding trials were successful, and the patient was able to have the catheter removed and be discharged without a catheter! 

This dedication to quality is reflected in 10 months without a Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection! 

Thank you, Dr. Shah and care team for your curiosity and your commitment to providing excellent care to our patients!
