Patient Reviews
Mar 28, 2024
With the recent retirement of my oncologist, I immediately inquired with the office whether Dr. Lewis would assume my care. My prayers were answered. My request was granted! Having Dr. Lewis care for me came at the perfect time, as I had just learned of my relapse. From the start, she immediately put me and my family at ease, responding to our questions and concerns with empathy, patience, and informed perspectives. I look forward to having her alongside me in this next phase of treatment.
