Just wanted to say that Greg Cote is funny, kind. I feel like I'm connecting with him every time I see him. I feel like he knows more about cancer than anyone I've ever met. He's brilliant. He does a nice job with his bedside manner. I feel like I've been in the best hands that I could ever possibly be in and he truly saved my life. Him and his nurse practitioners and nurses that work with him, [redacted] are all outstanding. I cannot say enough good words about all of these people. I am so glad that I found them. Thank you.

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Cote as an empathetic, skilled, and accomplished care provider, instilling in me every confidence in his judgement and recommendations. He has seen me through one surgery, and is taking the lead in the latest pathology report. During my routine follow-up I happened to mention that I was waiting for results on a pathology sample from another Dr. and despite the fact that it was not necessarily his area, he took the time to look at the pathology notes, and then followed up with the pathologist to speak directly about the results. Because his discussion with the pathologist raised the possibility of a concerning diagnosis, he called me the next day to discuss the result, and recommended I have an MRI and a CT Scan immediately. Within 10 minutes after speaking with him, his scheduler called me to set up the tests. I have my first one today and the second one on Sunday. Based on the results we will discuss next steps. Without being an alarmist, Dr. Cote is thorough and clear in his explanations and very calming. He has a remarkable way of communicating difficult news and he is extremely reassuring. I feel he is with me every step of the way, and I will have the best care possible going forward. For my last surgery we had to wait a bit for a surgeon he felt was especially skilled, and I appreciated such personal input. I am very grateful he is my Doctor.

Dr. Cote is fantastic. He has saved my life, is patient, brilliant, and is the perfect package of giving you realistic expectations and information. He's thoughtful, he's measured, and he really takes the time to listen to you, understand your personality, and understand the anxiety of going through cancer treatment. that truly cares and truly goes the extra mile. He's able to knit together research and clinical care and he's the quintessential oncologist. I wish more doctors could be like him.
