Dr Shammash listened to all my concerns and is allowing me to obtain a second opinion regarding the Occupational Therapist who graded my ability to continue driving.
I became a patient of Dr. Shammash last year and I've been very happy with his care. He is thorough, helpful, and very easy to talk to. He explains everything well and listens to questions.
I trust my life to him and he has always delivered.
He's an excellent medical professional. He takes his time to explain and to listen to the patient. Very respectful, I wouldn't change him.
Dr. Shammash is very good at listening and responding to health questions and concerns. I find him to be an excellent doctor and clinician and diagnostician. That's it.
