         Re:      Oak Tree Medical Systems, Inc.

Gentlemen:

         This  opinion is given in  connection  with the  registration  with the
Securities and Exchange Commission of an aggregate of 1,844,600 shares of Common
Stock granted by Oak Tree Medical Systems, Inc. (the "Company").  The Shares are
being registered pursuant to a requirement of Section 5 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act") pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with the
Washington,  D.C. Office of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Registration Statement").

         We have acted as counsel to the  Company  only in  connection  with the
preparation of the Form S-8 Registration  Statement pursuant to which the Shares
were  registered,  in so  acting,  have  examined  the  originals  and copies of
corporate  instruments,  certificates  and other  documents  of the  Company and
interviewed representatives of the Company to the extent we deemed it necessary,
in order to form the basis for the opinion hereinafter set forth.

         In such  examination we have assumed the  genuineness of all signatures
and  authenticity  of all documents  submitted to me as certified or photostatic
copies. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion which have not been
independently  established,  we have relied upon  statements or  certificates of
officers or representatives of the Company.

         The  1,844,600   shares  of  Common  Stock  are  being  registered  and
distributed  pursuant to the  Company's  Registration  Statement.  The shares of
Common Stock are now authorized but unissued.

         Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

         1.  The  Shares  of the  Company  registered  with the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission,  having been issued and sold pursuant to the  Registration
Statement,  are fully  paid and  non-assessable  and there  will be no  personal
liability to the owners thereof.
