Every person I met in the exam room from the colorful RN to students to Dr G himself, impressed me so much by their kindness, encouragement, and listening to my concerns.

Dr. Geevarghese was absolutely the best. He explained everything in terms I could understand. He showed me images of my liver and the progress that has been made. I am absolutely pleased with my appointment with him and his assistant, Dr. Baker.

Visit did seem rushed as he was running behind. A lot of info to consume in a very short time. Wished there was more time to ask questions (felt rushed in that area).

This is my first time having cancer, and it's a big one. I came in to the appointment scared. Scared that I would die from this, soon. When I left, I had hope that I could live.
