      She spoke to me in language that was understandable, as well as showing me with pictures. She was caring in how she dealt with my questions and concerns. She explained treatment plans well, gave good explanation for her recommendations, but left room for me to consult with others.

      I felt so at ease with the oncologist at my 1st meeting/exam with her. Very open, gave me truthful and factual information about my cancer, and her recommendations. Drew _____ to explain the cancer and procedure recommended which was very helpful for me to understand and quell my anxiety about my diagnosis.
