Visited For Rheumatism Treatment
Doctor was very lucid in his explanations and he was very straight in telling me that how I take my medicines regularly could help me in my pain management and very frank in telling me about the medicines and treatment i felt relieved and less stressed about the treatment. *** ** ** * **** ****** *** don't feel intimidated by the doctor all procedures inthe hospital was very simply and the person behind the counter was very helpful in guiding me to the point and registration was over in no time thanks to the person also and my tests were over in no time and got my reports also so overall everything went well.
Happy with: Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
As no painkillers worked for me, I was diagnosed with neurological problem and was undergoing treatment for almost a month, which never supported my pain and I only had to suffer drugs side effects along with progressive increase in pain. Finally was referred to Dr. Sham, whose diagnosis and persistent follow ups, threw some light in my treatment process and finally could diagnose my issue and now I’m on appropriate treatment. All thanks to him. My presentation of disease was unique and was very challenging to many senior orthopaedic specialist to diagnose, but he could help.

Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
ZERO STARS would be an apt rating for this doctor. RUDE, ********* NO EMPATHY TOWARDS PATIENTS, LONG WAIT TIME, POOR FRONT DESK PERSONNEL. I had recommended seeing this doc for my 60 year old mother who had mild pain from arthritis, based on the positive reviews on here and its been quite the contrary. One can earn all the certifications they want but a good bedside manner goes a long way in treating your patrons, more so in the field of medicine. Its a key trait for high quality patient care. When your patient frets and is anxious about their condition, its the doctor's job to soothe and calm their fears and offer hope (even if you prescribe a sugar pill for placebo effect). But apparently, he whined and yelled in a condescending manner that he would STRONGLY ADVOCATE STEROIDS for all patients and for any condition including hers (on her first visit that is) and that her diabetes is going to deteriorate since with his prescription, sugar and BP will 100 percent shoot up. This cannot be accepted as a remedy. * **** ****** ***** ***** ***** ******** *** *********** ****** **** ******* *** ******* *** **** ***** ********* ** ****** *** ******* ******** ** ******* ** ********** ******* ****** *** ************* ******* Not recommended to anyone.
