Meet Your Orthodontist!

Dr. Darshit Shah

Orthodontist

Dr. Shah, our Orthodontist, is a native of India. By the time he was in high school, he realized that Orthodontics was his calling in life. Based on his merits, he was able to enter dental school straight from high school.

His desire to practice Orthodontics at the highest level led him to move to USA. After completing dental school at Boston University, he was finally able to pursue his long-time dream of becoming an Orthodontist by entering Saint Louis University – the only active Orthodontic school established by the father of Orthodontics himself.

Family brings him to Texas and he finally feels at home here. When not at work, you can either find him yelling at the TV while supporting his soccer team, Manchester United, or walking the riverwalk with his girlfriend and dog.

Patients describe Dr. Shah as a fun, dedicated, detail oriented person with an eagerness to learn. He looks forward to giving you the smile that you’ve always wanted!
