I have been a patient of Dr. Paly's for 2 1/2 years and have the benefit of comparisons to other MGH Radiation Oncologists [redacted]. Dr. Paly has the increasingly rare combination of deep knowledge and expertise, which gives patients so much confidence in the care he provides, combined with an authentic "bedside" manner. It's clear he genuinely cares for his patients, does not rush you like so many others, and has a warm and engaging personality too. What's more, he is highly responsive to Messages sent to him. [redacted] Am reminded of the expression "remember, someone's effort is a reflection of their interest in you". Dr. Paly always appears very interested in me. As much as I dread returning to the treatment area, I always look forward to my visits with Dr. Paly.

There was a small technical issue with the MRI but it was solved quickly. The delay was only a couple of minutes. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.

In my opinion, I had just an excellent experience. There's a nurse there named [redacted], whom I've seen before, and she is just really extra special and did a lot of, you know, asked the right questions, very courteous, gets to the point of things in a hurry. And of course, the doctor was just fine too. He's always been consistent, always been ready to listen to me, ready to prescribe, etc. So I just rate them both very highly. Okay.
