I think the best plan for me was pretty much discussed and determined by my oncologist and this oncology surgeon beforehand with my best interest at heart. I trust their judgment. I’ve been a poster child for my oncologist’s treatments. We’d like to keep that up!

Dr Ostapoff was excellent!! She made me feel very comfortable and explained everything so that I could understand. All questions were answered professionally and was reassuring after the 6 week emotional roller coaster that I have been on. You need more caring doctors like her.
