Really liked meeting my new Oncologist. So positive, offered up options and very supportive. So intelligent and listened to me and my spouse. Gave really great feedback and advice and was ready to bring my information to the tumor board for review. Was an amazing and positive experience. Left the facility feeling very relieved.
