I wasn’t just a number to the staff; I was a patient who was treated with the utmost respect.

I knew from the minute I walked into the Doctors Hospital Cancer Center that I was in good hands. The staff treated me with professionalism and respect, and I truly appreciated it. From the front office personnel to the nursing staff, technicians who administered my external beam radiation and to my physicians, they couldn’t have made me feel more at ease. Drs Jerry and Jed Howington and their assistant, Mr. Chris Hall, were outstanding in their bedside manners and counseling. Nurses Dana and Ann were excellent, technician Don and the other techs were great. The front office staff of Kristy, Lynn and Teresa were cordial, welcoming and cheerful, making this a great experience. They were very flexible with helping to change appointment times to fit my busy life. I am completely satisfied with the treatment I received at Doctors Hospital and I trust them with my health without any hesitation.
