Patient Reviews
Apr 30, 2023
When it comes to my cancer treatment, I am most interested in care and treatment that will be cutting edge, effective and timely. In this instance, I also have the benefit of a gem of a human participating in my care and recovery. This man has likely saved my life and I feel I can trust him implicitly with my care.
