Hello, I'm Mrunal Shah

I’ve spent over 25 years as a physician and healthcare executive, and along the way, I’ve discovered the power of coaching, mentorship, and sponsorship. Throughout my career, I’ve guided many talented individuals, and through that work, I strive to give back to colleagues across healthcare. I genuinely believe that every challenge improves when we come together with empathy and connection.

​

My journey began with acceptance into a BSMD program right out of high school, followed by earning my medical degree from Northeastern Ohio University College of Medicine. I completed my family medicine residency at Riverside Methodist Hospital, a time rich in personal and professional growth. During residency, I met my wife, Bella Mehta, a PharmD student on rotation at the Ohio State University College of Pharmacy.

​

Inspired to support emerging medical professionals, I served as Assistant Program Director at the Riverside Family Medicine Residency Program for six years. There, I valued every opportunity to help young physicians navigate the challenging aspects of their careers—from building personal connections with families to guiding patients through life-altering decisions. Over time, I learned that trust lies at the heart of healthcare leadership; when we listen and care, we can overcome nearly anything.

​

I remain passionate about coaching and mentoring physicians at every career stage, consistently working to build trust and foster innovation. Outside of work, I’m soon celebrating 25 years of marriage with my wonderful wife and enjoy spending time with our two daughters—a junior in college and a sophomore in high school. In my spare time, photography and guitar have become creative outlets that remind me how human connection enriches our lives.

​

I invite you to connect with me as we work together to empower healthcare teams, nurture innovation, and improve patient outcomes through genuine human connection.
