• Dr Phil Saylor is the best oncologist I have experienced and I have met with many of the other "big names" in GU / Kidney Cancer world. His ability to communicate with his patients, articulate the challenges and logic behind his thinking around next steps and future plans, and do so while respecting the patient enough to seek their own input as well is something that every aspiring Oncologist should study and use as guidance. He should be supported as best as possible by the institution and viewed as an extremely high value and unique resource within the hospital in my opinion.
