    I liked how open Dr Alvila - Lima is . I felt very comfortable asking her questions. She took the time to give me the information I needed . I liked how she said ??? we need a plan ??? and then proceeded to outline the steps we need to take . I felt very encouraged when I left , even tho we are early in the process .

    Dr. Anderson answered my many questions and spent a lot of time explaining a new medication she wanted me to take for my bones and why I should take it. She was very patient with me and also discussed the amount of calcium and vitamin D I should be taking. We also discussed the iron pill that I've been taking and need to be taking it, as well as the cancer in my family. She was very informative and very helpful and is a very kind and understanding person. I'm very lucky to have her as my doctor.

Dr. Lima was very knowledgeable and I loved her approach in the decisions that we???re getting ready to make in my care. We are getting ready to move Into the area and I have to change care from Barnes hospital in St. Louis and so I wanted to make sure that I had the right person to continue my care with. Everyone in her office was extremely nice and all got involved and what we were talking about and our plans for some scans and go back and see the doctor and I really appreciate that .

    I was in the best care anywhere for breast care. My entire experience at the MDA oncology clinic was outstanding; from the vibe and stellar staff: Dr. Julie Greenwalt is simply the best, she knows her stuff, she is kind, caring, patient and answered my many questions, thank you very much Dr. Greenwalt! Radiation oncology nurse navigator Ann Walsh is also very kind and helpful, especially with Reiki; I strongly encourage you to offer Reiki as a part of your healing repertoire in addition to standard of care. Some others to mention include the desk staff who greeted me with smiles, by my first name and made me feel so welcome, they represent MDA well, Shaleatha and Kel. The radiation therapists were also great, they explained things to me, answered my questions, played great music, covered me with a warm blanket. I jokingly would say that my experience was similar to a day spa with RT. Thank you: Jim, Danny-Ellen, Sam, Brian, Tony. Finally the ringing of the bell! The best care anywhere...

    Dr. Lima seemed scattered. She kept saying to herself, "What else do I need to tell you?" I'm glad I saw Dr. Anderson first to explain the gnome testing etc. I think Dr. Lima told me everything. ? She answered my questions. The papers she gave me to take home did not include any contact information. I didn't have anything for Matt the pharmacist. I had some questions later and did not have their number. Dr. Lima ordered the port and I had some issues with it. I did not have a phone number to ask about it. I'm hoping chemo goes smoothly.

    I had a blood draw in the lab at MD Anderson on October 11. It was ordered by my chemo oncologist, Dr. Lima. She is wonderful!!! But when I went to my appointment with her to discuss the next steps of my treatment on October 19, only one of the two test results were back. I needed FSH and Estrodial to determine whether or not I would need chemotherapy. I was very nervous about this appointment. My blood pressure at the time of the appointment was 141/92 and I am usually 110/70. Apparently, according to the FSH number, chemo is not recommended. Dr. Lima put in my chart that she was going to start Letrozole as soon as the Estrodial number came in. I have an appointment with radiation oncologist on October 30 to get that started. But until the Estrodial comes back, Dr. Lima can't do anything and until I know what my plan is for chemo (or not), the radiation oncologist can't do anything. I have had THREE surgeries. The first was a bi-lateral mastectomy, the second was emergency because a clip that the assistant breast surgeon placed came off and I was bleeding. I had to stay in the hospital for two days and receive blood transfusions because of this. It set my recovery back a week. And made my stress level go through the roof! Then I had my lymph nodes removed from under my left arm on September 28 because of positive sentinel lymph node in first surgery. I need to get going on the next steps to make sure there is no more cancer in me and I am just astonished that MD Anderson would let this lab take this long. I fully expected an answer by end of day Thursday. Instead, I received an email at 4:58 Friday from Dr. Lima telling me that the lab told her it would take 17 days for this test. 17 days for a simple Estrodial test? That is beyond ridiculous. I tried immediately to call the office Friday and it was already closed. I did email her at that time. Not sure what happens over the weekend. When I met with her on Thursday morning she told me that she was bugging the lab for the result. I fully expected to know by end of day Thursday. I checked my chart every half hour Friday. I can???t believe that I would get this communication two minutes before close of business on a Friday and then nobody would answer the phone. I am kicking myself for not calling Friday afternoon and checking but it never occurred to me that I would be left hanging over the weekend!!! I did not sleep more than three hours last night because I was so upset and angry and felt helpless. I would happily self pay for another lab to do this test to get the results. They are holding up my treatment. This is not the level of care that I expect from MD Anderson.

    I gave points for the drs knowledge only!!! The lack of compassion and unprofessionalism I received was awful. I pray no one ever has to encounter what I did being a cancer patient or any patient???. My initial visit with dr Avila Lima I gave her Nurse Lisa my FMLA paperwork. She submitted the paperwork 3 times without a duration or frequency. Each time it set my paperwork back 5 days for processing. You can imagine how this stressed me the weekend before Surgery. I saw a Liaison name Ann who I informed my issue and she was nice enough to email Lisa over an example of what I needed to have submitted to MetLife???Unfortunately Lisa would not submit a duration and frequency only specific dates which causes the claim to end after those dates??? I had to wait to get to the Radiation side to Dr Anderson's nurse Alexis to get the paperwork filled out correct. On this recent visit I decided to inform Dr Avila Lima of what I encountered with her nurse and ended up in what was a back and forth because she supported the nurses knowledge of FMLA. She said at the end of the conversation that she would send Lisa in to give me her email and I could send over the paperwork. She walked out and returned with Lisa???s email herself. Handed it to me and said you can send it over and walked out the room. She did not give me any further instruction. She did not say your free to check out. Nothing at all???. All of this made me think back to when I called a few weeks go to see if it was ok to take a flu shot for my job. I left two messages for Avila Limas office to call me regarding this because the receptionist said no one was available. I called back for a 3rd time and told the receptionist again what I was calling for and she remembered me and said she saw a note in the system that said I could have the flu shot. But no one ever returned my call to tell me this. So it seems that Lisa has avoided any interaction with me because I was upset regarding my FMLA. And Dr Avila Lima has supported this. If Dr Avila Limas area does FMLA paperwork different it could have been explained with patience a little compassion. I have never experienced this kind of treatment from any of the staff like I have from Lisa and Avila Lima. My mother was a patient of Dr Cavillres and they handled my FMLA with no problem. I would like for someone to call me to discuss this matter because I would like to receive the best care from a compassionate and professional Dr who cares. 904-735-2050

    The medical oncologist should be the first person you see after a cancer diagnosis, not a surgeon. People diagnosed with cancer need to wrap their heads around the ramifications of the diagnosis and find out what treatment options are available - and why - first. The oncologist can answer our questions and monitor our health along our treatment path. This is so important! I really feel that the missing link in my cancer treatment was not seeing the oncologist first. I needed to hear that surgery was the prescribed treatment for cancer and why. If we as patients have the information upfront, we can better prepare and get rid of anxiousness and stress about our course of treatment. We don't need to scour the internet for information on our disease, we need real doctors to talk to and tell us our options. We also definitely need someone, the oncologist, to coordinate our care and treatment for when multiple cancers are involved. Otherwise, patients feel like they are negotiating medical information and decisions alone, and without decent information to do it. Please consider sending all cancer patients to an oncologist first!

    I like that the disease process (cancer) is not viewed as separate from the patient. This disease affects the patient not just physically,, but also mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Other modalities were offered to treat and uplift the whole patient, even the nutritional aspect if requested. I also appreciated the recognition that cancer affects the entire family...it doesn't take place in a vacuum. The mission statement in the lobby says it all! Additionally, I felt respected, and listened to, by the oncologist that saw me. She took plenty of time, which I appreciated. The beauty of the facility was also very soothing.

This includes those individuals who participated in the administrative side of my initial visit schedulers and nurse navigators; as well as the doctors, nurses, social workers, and other care team members who participated in my direct patient care. All my records were accounted for so the doctors could get a full picture of my diagnosis (I came with most of my work up completed from different facilities). I felt cared for. I never felt rushed. I left with a greater understanding of my diagnosis, treatment options, and prognosis.
