Patient Reviews
Sep 23, 2021
I have been a patient of Dr. Benjamin for nine years. The plan he laid out for me, post-surgery, has worked very well. Unlike friends of mine who have dealt with cancer (other oncologists, though), I have not had a recurrence. The longest any of them survived was 8 years, the last two years she was dealing with a recurrence. Dr. Benjamin seems to stay current on related research. If there were two things I would be critical about these would be them: (1) Never is my appointment on time, and the waits are beyond what is reasonable; (2) Spends such a short time with me -- not quite sure how it is my insurance gets billed for a 15-minute consultation when it is usually no more than 10. The NP does the work.
