Have never been impressed with Dr. Shams - are check-ins are very quick and I don't feel like she is engaged in the conversation. This appointment - checking my body was about a 20 second event. I'm likely changing doctors.

Dr. Samantha Shams has truly been a Godsend for my father. She is empathetic and makes him feel that he and his well-being matters. I feel that my father has a true medical advocate. She collaborated with Dr. Kahn (the oncologist). The two of them came up with a plan that has drastically improved my father’s outlook and well-being. This difficult time has been made much more bearable due to the superlative care provided by Dr. Shams. We are deeply grateful!

A very good doctor

Honest, sincere, professional

Dr shams has great bedside manner.

Dr spent 21/2 minutes in exam room, although she asked if I had questions, I felt she was in a rush.

My appt was at 9:30am, followed for my infusion at 10am. The doctor did not see me until after 11am and seemed irritable and angry.

Professional, knowledgeable, patient friendly

Dr. Shams is a very good physician. She knows her medicine and also manages to touch patients with her caring concern for what we are going through.

Great doctor that cares for her patients.

I found the doctor to be rude and abrasive.

Dr. Shams is knowledgeable, an excellent listener/
