This was my first time at OSMS and check in was easy. The nurse was amazing and friendly. Dr. Afroz was so polite and welcoming! I am so glad to have been treated so well and to be seen and heard by them. Dr. Afroz not only addressed my concerns but made me feel like she really wanted to treat me as a person not just as a patient. I would recommend anyone who needs to come here!

From the day I first visited Dr. Afroz, her kindness; professionalism, patience, understanding of my health issues, offering immediate relief for some of my most painful issues, ability to not overmedicate, design a regiment suited to my needs and just her over all knowledge and her willingness to listen and advise is some of her most valuable qualities! Bar-none! I am so blessed to have her as my Rheumatologist, that I pray that I never have to search for another!

Dr. Afros was very nice and knowledgeable about the issues at hand. I did though think more information was needed about her plans and intentions that should be discussed and agreed with the patient to move forward. I believe the best care is between the patient and Dr. Patient awareness of their condition and treatment is vital.
