      from Herman 5.0 Stars - (2025-02-11)
  • "Fist time visiting this facility. Off the bat very welcoming , friendly., and clean. The phlebotomist were very professional. They kept asking if I was ok throughout the procedure. The PA was very friendly and explained what to expect and what side affects some people have experienced but explained that everyone reacts differently to iron infusion. Dr. Chu was very nice out going and easy to talk to talk to. Over all I am pleased with my experience at NY Cancer and Blood. I even made an appointment for my daughter to have her Hemoglobin checked with Dr. Chu. I would definitely recommend my friends and family to go here if they needed to."
