2 years agoThe great experience with Dr Shammas. She listen and answer all of my concerns with a professional manner. She is very knowledgeable and thorough. She planned our next appointment with all of my blood work and bone density test. Thanks again Doctor.

2 years agoShe never prepares for patients; always look up information for the patients on the time she see a patient. I don't know what she does for patients. Besides, she is very lazy to order blood test and keep track of patient's symptom. Do not waste your money. Terrible!
