Patient Reviews
Nov 21, 2024
I started chemo for Oligodendroglioma, brain cancer, six months ago. During that time, Dr. Ghattas has been supportive, in depth when answering any and all questions, fought for a medication that my insurance did not want to cover, and checks on me often (especially when my body feels like it's falling apart due to the chemo). I could not ask for a better oncologist.
