  • "I have been under his care since 2019. He remembers things from way back when I started till present day. He is well versed in his assessment and what I should be doing to take care of myself. He gathers Health information from my doctor's and labs to keep a running tab on me. I have chronic Low Feritin Anemia. I go for checkups every 3 months. About once or twice a year I require iron infusions once a week for 6 weeks. The infusion staff knowledgeable with terrific bedside manner. They make sure you are comfortable weather it is anxiety or an extra pillow. They give you access to a tablet with ear phones to listen to music or watch a video. Without a doubt you are in very good hands with NY Cancer and Blood Hematology and Dr. Torres"
