Lydia Usha is the best! She always answers my questions, she gives me good explanations on best treatments. I trust her and feel every aspect of my MBC Cancer. is being monitored. Her team is excellent, are very helpful and empathetic and respond quickly. If you have breast cancer you will have a long relationship with your oncologist, it is important you trust them. At this point I am grateful and very feel very lucky to be her patient!
