Patient Reviews
Jan 18, 2017
I've patient of Dr Shams for several years. He is a rare see who genuinely cares for me & my complex health issues. He's always very informative,& although he makes sure to be sure that a treatment is right for me, he ALWAYS makes sure that I'm safe & healthy. I have recommended folks to his practice & have every reason to continue to do so. He had shown me nothing but compassion & attentive care.
