Please do not waste your time or $$ with this provider. Her time management skills are not there. She works only on HER time. Her staff lies for her when she's off running doing her own thing all while ignoring her clinic schedule and patients. Oncology Drs/clinics should be held to a higher standard given the sensitivity of life changing diagnosis and care needed! This Dr doesn't understand the assignment. Save your health, money and see a different Dr that actual has compassion, better time management, and helpful knowledge. She is well known within LRH to have a bad rep too....just ask. I didn't do my research 1st and my health is now suffering because of it. To think I actual put faith into a cancer ctr...silly me!
