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.
Dr. Sham is very pragmatic in his approaches and was very kind to respond to all my text messages. Many thanks to him.

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.
