• Yes, my experience with Dr. Derek B Chism was great. He explained things thoroughly to me and to my husband, and he answered all our questions and asked if I had any other questions of my own, and asked if I had any more. He's obviously well-versed on my history. He's a wonderful doctor, and I would recommend him to anybody.

• Dr Chism asks questions and listens to my comments/concerns, as well as examining me. He celebrates my years as a breast cancer survivor. He has always been easy to speak with, and I'm filled with a sense of ease and gratitude after my appointment with him.

• I was recently diagnosed with Breast cancer [redacted]. After my lumpectomy with MGB in Boston, I chose to go with MGB in Danvers for my radiation. I was so happy after my first appointments with Dr. Derek Chism and RN [redacted], these two were part of the medical staff who would care for my needs. They are both so caring, professional, great listeners, making me feel most comfortable and explaining everything to me in a way I could understand and giving me the time to ask any questions. I would highly recommend Dr Chism and Nurse [redacted] to anyone in need of care who are empathetic and knowledgeable.
