Dr Shams is wonderful! Very kind and knowledgeable..
Doctor is very knowledgable and kind. I don't dread my appointments. I just wish he was open on Fridays but you know what, he's so good. I'll make whatever day he is available work.
He was so nice. Professional and I felt very at easy
I was seen at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. Mayo kept me at the clinic for a week, they ran MRIs, CT Scans, X-rays, Blood tests. Dr. Sham saw me for 5 minutes: no x-rays, CT scans, or MRIs- looked at me.He decided Mayo Clinic and the University of MN Hospitals were wrong in my diagnosis that I have been treated for the last 30 years with 8 prior Rheumatologists. Over this time, I have had every side effect known to my autoimmune disease.
very good service.
They were running behind but kept me informed. The staff were friendly and I love that they did the blood work in the office.
He is so good hate to give him 5 stars...as then can't have all to myself...
excellent
He was one of the most knowledgeable doctor that I have ever been to.
Pretty good...
good
First visit. No complaints. I was expecting a more modern facility but it was clean and orderly. The staff was kind and personable.
