Dr Shams is an excellent doctor! I trust her implicitly with hmthe health of myself and all of my family and I would highly recommend her as a family GP. The fact that this clinic is so busy speaks for itself and clearly shows that I am not the only one who thinks so highly of Dr Shams and her team.
I've only had wonderful interactions with Dr Goldberg. She really takes the time to understand the problem and obviously has the expertise to manage it. She is a very talented young doctor who cares for people. Highly recommended!
Great experience i had with DR Ramla,very professional Dentist.I always make bookings and i get helped on time.
I had visited the medical center this past Thursday cause I had a bad reaction to something I ate, the medication that was prescribed helped with the pain of the allergies but it kept spreading , I called in at the doctors room as I was at work so i was unable to visit the medical center and received the best help over the phone from Dr Marriam Goldberg and the allergies disappeared the next day due to the cream she recommended . Thanks a Million Dr Goldberg
