Dr. Puliafito is a very professional man. He took care of everything that he needed to take care of in a timely manner. I was very pleased with my experience, which I don't like experiences at cancer centers, you know what I mean. But yeah, he did good. He's a good guy. Anything else? I don't think I can say. Yeah, that'd be it.

With very, very few exceptions, if any. The service and communication is top-notch. It is so much better than where it was when I was before, and I would be dead now if I didn't come here. Literally. Anyway, the care is at the top of the heap. And the doctors and all the nurses are They listen, they talk, I understand them, they understand me. Very good.
