In the face of breast cancer, this provider was excellent in all ways and helping both explain and create a plan for care.
This is my first experience with this facility and the staff, and as sad as the reason of these visits, I have good faith in their abilities, and knowledge in medicine that I am in great hands, that this experience will be good.
Very personable and friendly. She explained everything I needed to know.
Felt extremely cared for, cancer can be overwhelming.
Dr. Zakerih was completely, and compassionately, focused on my health issues. She does not talk in absolutes and guarantees, but was reassuring and able to answer all my concerns. She has been a wonderful doctor to have during this difficult time.
Very nice doctor and great info on half my concern. The other half (hormone issues) wasn't as good but is due to fact that she doesn't do HRT...but she did get me referred to a correct doctor for that issue. So, all good!
This doctor is new to me. She is lovely, knowledgeable, friendly, warm, patient, and informative. Very happy to have her as my Surgical Oncologist!
Dr Z was very efficient and professional but also kind and compassionate. I felt at ease with her and she explained things to me in a way that I could understand. A very positive experience.
Dr. Was great. She was VERY GOOD. I was in bad shape when I went into the exam room but came out so much better. She also called and checked up on me. She Is awsome.
I felt I was given my doctors full attention and was treated very kindly.
The Dr and nurse were WONDERFUL.Kind, well informed, very considerate of my feelings, extremely efficient and went the 2nd mile to be helpful - also patient and compassionate, I did not feel hurried or dismissed. The next steps were clearly outlined. I felt emotionally hugged by their care.
This doctor and her assistant were fantastic! They called me to check in on me a couple days after my visit and they were both so nice and personable! I wish that she was my regular doctor!!
Very compassionate, caring individual
Dr.Johnson was extremely kind, attentive, knowledgeable and thorough. I am very happy to have found her (note that my friend who is an oncology nurse recommended her which is a strong vote of confidence.
