Everyone in the hospital that I was in contact with had a genuine concern for my welfare
Excellent experience.
My experience with Dr. Thomas and Dr. Hunt were exceptional. They were candid, informative, answered all questions and took as much time with me as I needed. Very special experience.
Dr. Thomas is great.
Dr. Thomas is very good, kind, respectful.
I had a very good experience as always!!
The doctor and his assistant gave us a very good information about what was going on with me and the cancer. I thought everything Said it's very interesting. That there's always something out there something new on horizon in my pro Health didn't know that north is ready to throw me away was a good decision to come back to where My journey started
Great experience
An absolutely wonderful group of people! I couldn't have had better care!
Dr. Thomas is wickedly smart. He's done a fantastic job of managing my cancer and I am eternally grateful to him.
Dr. Thomas is an outstanding medical provider. He listens carefully to my concerns and promotes a sense of hope in treatment options. Even though I am a stage 4 cancer patient, he has presented my prognosis with a sense of hope and that if cancer should show up, we have treatment options and there is ongoing reserach in how we treat cancer. As a member of the tumor board, he works collaboratively with a team of doctors and serves as a mentor to others in the field.
Dr Thomas is an outstanding oncologist. Very smart and intuitive. A real partner in my journey . I feel like I am his only patient. Takes plenty of time to hear my concerns. I feel I am in the right place for my treatment. Thanks Froedtert.
I love going to Oak Creek Cancer Center! Everyone there makes the process so easy, which is great because Cancer is not easy! I totally trust my doctors here! They explain everything very thoroughly in understandable terms. Whenever something is off, they take steps to ensure that something is not missed. Also, I never have problems with my insurance covering anything they recommend, that has happened occasionally at other places. I give the 5+ stars! I have recommended them to others who have cancer.
