Patient Reviews
Oct 18, 2024
What's better than winning Power Ball and Mega Millions on the same day? Well, I found out that there is something that beats that and any other good thing that could ever happen to me. That was when Doctor Karin Cole said she would treat me. I don't know how to put this and I am getting very choked up trying to write this. All I can say is she is wonderful. I got the news that I had Colon Cancer and that the Dr who did the Colonoscopy had scheduled a preliminary appt with Dr Cole. I was more scared than any other time in my life, and that is saying something. Because I'm a Combat Veteran of Vietnam and I know what absolute fear is. At the appointment in walked a small woman who started telling me what was going to happen to me. She was kind. She was nice. She treated me with respect and care and she said she was going to everything she could do to help me. She did everything she said she was going to do and I'm alive today because of her. Thank God I met this Doctor.
