This was one of the best 👌 experience I had with the medical industry. Usually I suffer from anxiety 🙃 when I go to the doctor office and not knowing what to expect I was a nervous wreck but the Staff must have sense this . They were very warm and treated me with compassion and understanding while explaining the whole process. Thank you all !

Dr. Shams and his staff are some of the most caring and professional individuals ever. From the first day I met them it has been nothing but excellent care. They go above and beyond and have always made sure I was informed and aware of all options. I owe them my life, literally, for that I am forever grateful. Do yourself a favor and get in touch with his office ASAP. Thank me later 🙂

Dr Shams is the best, he’s not your average Doc. I choose to call him doc he talks to you and he listens and he’s always trying to find a way to work out your situation. I had a situation which was life and death and he communicated with me and my family to work towards a good and healthy life with as few complications as possible and his team of regulars whom was knowledgeable of what I was dealing with and are so comforting they make you feel like you’re in your living room Getting treatment I love ❤️ him and the team and I do and will continue to refer others to his office.In additionI just finished reading other statements from people whom have posted their experiences with Doc and his team and I was not surprised to read, that we all pretty much have had the same experiences and feel the same thumbs up 👍 Doc

I have visited Dr. Joseph N. Shame for the first time, my podiatrist advised him as a highly professional, and she was right. All the medical staff at the office was very polite and helpful. I didn’t have to wait for a long time, and the doctor was very much careful while examining me. I was sure that he was absolutely sincere in his desire to help me. So, if someone needs a good vascular doctor, I would highly recommend Dr. Sham’s office .

Non-Surgical Fibroid Treatment in Brooklyn

We want women to know that major surgery is not their only option. At American Fibroid Centers, we perform non-surgical fibroid treatments in Brooklyn, such as uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). UFE is a minimally invasive, image-guided procedure that reduces the size of fibroids without surgery. It does not require an overnight hospital stay, has fewer complications, and is a less invasive alternative to a hysterectomy, keeping the uterus intact. Our affiliated fibroid specialists in Brooklyn are highly skilled in performing UFE and take the time to evaluate your risk factors and symptoms to determine if it’s the right treatment for you.
