His journey home took him near and far. He completed his undergraduate training at the University of North Texas and Austin College followed by his medical school education at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. He completed his residency in Child Neurology at the University of New Mexico where he remains a volunteer faculty to continue his passion for education while serving as medical director for Camp Rising Sun, a summer camp for children with autism. He then braved the Chicago winter to complete his fellowship in Epilepsy at Northwestern University before following his calling to Fort Worth.??<br /><br /> With gratitude, Dr. Shahani has what he believes is the greatest job in the world, to be able to care for children and their parents, often through their most challenging moments. His clinical interests include caring for children with complex seizures, headaches, and any other neurologic ailment. He values a treatment approach that considers lifestyle modifications alongside medications, dietary therapies, and/or surgery when appropriate. His primary passion is education for all - so he asks his patients, students, and colleagues to never be afraid to ask about anything on their mind. If we don’t know the answer, we can work to find it.?? ??<br /><br /> Outside of his clinical interests, he enjoys spending time with his loved ones, watching football, gardening, music, and being outdoors as often as possible.???</p> <div class="quote-block"> <div class="caption"> <div class="quote"> <div class="rich-text"> <p> <svg id="Layer_1" class="mr-3" data-name="Layer 1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 40 40"> <path d="M4.58,31.71v-10.14c0-4.8,1.14-8.6,3.43-11.39,2.29-2.79,5.63-4.61,10.02-5.48v5c-3.27,1.02-5.46,2.79-6.58,5.28-.58,1.31-.82,2.67-.72,4.08h7.54v12.63H4.58ZM37.03,9.71c-3.23,.99-5.41,2.79-6.53,5.38-.64,1.38-.9,2.71-.77,3.99h7.54v12.63h-13.69v-10.14c0-4.87,1.18-8.68,3.53-11.43,2.36-2.75,5.66-4.56,9.92-5.43v5Z" /> </svg> Dr. Shahani was truly amazing! I wasn't sure if he would be able to understand or relate to my daughter. He blew me away! Prior to our appointment, she was extremely nervous and anxious. By the time we left, she opened up to him and felt safe under his care.
