Drs always take their time with me. I never feel rushed and they time to tell me what's going on and what to expect !

I don't think there's a safer, more qualified place in Tennessee than Vanderbilt. I would recommend it to anyone.

Dr was amazing-very Thorough and explained all of my options. I also really liked that he was prepared before I got there. His bedside manner was excellent and I really like that I did not feel rushed.

Dr Rexer was nice, explained his treatment plan well. He was open to receiving treatment at another VICC location.

I felt he is not taking my case seriously . He came to the room (usually, most doctors shake hands with me and my guests) not Dr Rexer . Dr Rexer has no knowledge of my last blood work or any changes in my health . Patients can feel if the Dr is doing his best or we are only numbers on his priority list and his first priority is research or other than see patients.
