Patient Reviews
Apr 18, 2024
The first thing that we learned about Dr. Safa was that he was a very personable and caring person; he took time to explain the purpose and procedures necessary for the proper protocols of radiation therapy in the treatment of lung cancer (of course his humor was a real plus). In addition, he took time to explain in detail the potential side effects of radiation therapy and the treatment necessary for those side effects. Never before have we met a doctor who has exhibited such professionalism in an initial meeting. He gave us great hope about the potential results of the therapy in the treatment of the cancer. His professionalism continued during the period of radiation and still continues.
