I could not give him enough accolades! He truly was excellent in every aspect of my care. He made the explanation of my particular cancer understandable in addition to giving me hope and empathy. He asked if I understood his explanation several times and I felt he wanted me to understand every avenue available for my care. I will definitely refer him should such an occasion arise. Excellent doctor.
