This is a specialty office - Hematology / Oncology. I have a chronic cancer similar to Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, and see Dr. K every three months. He's very calm and pragmatic, and demonstrates an extremely high degree of expertise (from my pov) which gives me a great comfort and confidence. Some of the questions in this survey don't seem to exactly apply to my unique situation, nor to my relationship with this specific clinic and doctor. I have never had ANY bad experience with them - it's been quite a positive journey so far, particularly considering my illness.
