Patient Reviews
Nov 06, 2024
Very satisfied with my experience with Dr. Nakhlis from the first meeting to discuss treatment options to post-surgery discussions on next steps. She was very supportive when I suggested taking a more aggressive approach to my cancer treatment due to my genetic profile. She is very responsive to any queries I make through the patient portal. This was my first encounter with anyone once I was diagnosed with cancer and I can't imagine having a better experience.
