Dr. Dutta asked me if I was doing exercises and massage. My response was "what exercises and what massage?" He never told me I should be doing those activities. Nothing was in the materials the nurse gave me before I started treatment either. I was very annoyed.

Dr Dutta is a great physician and a very caring, conscientious one. He takes time to show me my scans and explain them to me clearly. He participates in conversations about my care with other doctors. He takes responsibility and even calls a patient to personally discuss progress, side effects, or treatment.
