Patient Reviews
Aug 11, 2024
I’ve been seeing Dr. Rhines for several years now and finally agreed to remove the spinal tumor. He is an amazing Dr that has stood by my side, explaining everything in easy to understand language and will spend time with you making sure you know all of the details. He’s a very patient and kind doctor that cares about helping the patient recover to the best of their ability and to live a life after the tumor or cancer. I’m forever grateful and thankful for him, his team and all of the MD Anderson staff that took care of me during the process.
