The team that I saw for Dr. Ching-Tismal was very compassionate and thorough. I felt very comfortable with the doctor from the moment she walked in the room. She was very positive and answered all my questions. I feel very comfortable in her hands. Over all the facility is top notch and beautiful. All staff that we encountered on that day were the best. You should be very proud of your staff. I am very fortunate to have M.D. Anderson in the city of Jacksonville.

Better teamwork. When you have breast cancer, and only get a few words after surgery..And you have been told you can get your results by calling prior to your post-op appointment (although it is scary)--communication is important. Not to know what went on in surgery, whether you will need another surgery or even your prognosis for survival--and you live in another state---but have to wait for the next appointment with someone you've never met--it is even more frightening. I say this, understanding that turnover is high and we are in a Pandemic. But things like surgery and biopsy results are critical to the patient. Their stress is huge. The least they can do is call you back, after you have requested it.

Explained the reasons behind the testing and what the different outcomes we to be and action plan from results. Also made sure that my next phase of appointments were completed right away and set up.

Sending patients for so many test who are not high risk or zero cancer level doesn???t are sense to us. It seems to be more about money than ???Just to make sure??? especially after they have already done a mammogram, ultrasound And Have done a biopsy! Why do additional MRI AND another biopsy? Makes us think that not enough interpretation of results or poor communication occurred.
