  • "Dr. Elrafei is a great doctor and person. He understood all my concerns and put in the work to get me a medication to help preserve my hearing. I have pre existing hearing loss and need chemo therapy. My first oncologist said it wasn’t possible to get the medication. Dr. Elrafei took the time to formulate a plan and get the medication approved. I am a nurse practitioner and a patient. From a patient perspective and health care provider perspective this is stellar care."
