My husband was recently diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer and is receiving chemo here. Dr. [NAME] was wonderful talking to me about my concerns, and alternatives for dealing. She is amazing. Dr. Burnett also spoke to me regarding the situation. Dr. Burnett was very proactive in my treatment and I am doing well. Together, he and Dr. [NAME] have shown so much caring and concern for me! In fact, all of the medical staff has been great! They are making an extremely difficult time bearable and I appreciate them all so very much.
