      from Lillyana 5.0 Stars - (2024-10-01)
  • "I went to Sloan's today, bc I didn't trust Patel pushing chemo well to my surprise the oncologist said chemo would not help me. And Sloan's actually listened to my lungs which Zpatel should do with any patient presenting with lung cancer. So no I was not impressed with Dr. Patel at all he's nice bc it's a big money maker. I would not recommend anyone to blood and cancer."
