ITEM 4.         CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

                The accounting firm of Most Horowitz & Company, LLP ("Most
Horowitz") was engaged as the independent accountants of Oak Tree Medical
Systems, Inc. (the "Company") for the fiscal years ended May 31, 1997 and May
31, 1998. On August 13, 1999, Most Horowitz resigned as the Company's
independent accountants. Most Horowitz' reports on the financial statements of
the Company for the two most recent fiscal years did not contain an adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the Company's two
most recent fiscal years and for the interim periods thereafter there were no
disagreements between the Company and Most Horowitz on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Most
Horowitz, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the
disagreement in connection with its reports. On August 16, 1999 the Company's
Board of Directors engaged Grant Thornton, LLP as the Company's independent
accountants for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999.
