Dr Shams is wonderful! Very kind and knowledgeable..
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...
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.
excellent
He was one of the most knowledgeable doctor that I have ever been to.
Pretty good...

First visit. No complaints. I was expecting a more modern facility but it was clean and orderly. The staff was kind and personable.
