"Dr Oster has been instrumental in my life post Epilepsy Diagnosis in 2012. We worked together through the entire process, my depression (from meds), finding the best anti seizure medication (needed to go through 4 different meds/doses) for my situation (everyone's Epilepsy is different). Always provides timely information, filings of paperwork for my policies, helps obtain discount/free medication from drug manufacturers when I can't afford them. Without Dr Oster I would not be where I am today. I thank God I was assigned to him when I had my initial seizure. I followed him from Lahey to Tufts. If I do need surgery someday (possible) I want Dr Oster to help the Neurosurgeon determine where to cut (yes, he does that too)... He is the head of Tufts Epilepsy and Sleep department... there are times because of emergencies in the hospital that I need to wait to see him (a few times over an hour), I don't mind because he is helping someone that was like me in the hospital. Even after ...
the emergencies, he focuses on me his patient 100%. I will never leave Dr Oster, he truly is the best... all around. Happy 8 year patient of Dr Oster... "
