Patient Reviews
-
"She is a very good Dr. I just feel she has so many patient's to care for. Sometimes we, the post treatment patients can be testy because of different side effect of our post treatment meds that we aren't use to feeling. The whole care team really try to explain and assist us thru these rough patches. Which is true in my case. I've never been sick and I'm so use to being the care giver. Now I have to entrust my care for me to others. I truly do appreciate her and her team. Chemotherapy is a very invasive procedure. And scary. They all has made my transition easier and I know sometimes I kind of buck the system but I do appreciate her truly. Thank you"
