Smitha Menon, MD

I have been blessed to have Dr. Smitha Mennon as my Oncologist for 8 years. She guided me through chemotherapy after an upper lobectomy and after a wedge resection. She speaks clearly about the issues at hand and also has a special ability to relate and demonstrate compassion. And here I am, 8 years after my initial diagnosis. Proof positive of the care exceptional care provided by Froedtert/MCW and the care team led by Dr. Mennon.

Dr. Menon has cared for me for the past two years since I was first diagnosed with Stage 4 non small cell lung cancer. I am a retired nurse ... and very anxious as this is my third separate cancer diagnosed. She listens to my concerns, never hurries me out of the office, is very calm when talking with me and my spouse, is very knowledgeable of the current management of my disease, answers my what if this or that questions, tells me what to expect from my treatment and remains positive of my prognosis in view of the fact that I am two years out and doing well on my current meds. I would recommend her to anyone I knew who needed a thoracic oncologist. Also I can always reach her or her staff during the day during the week and have never needed to contact her or the people who respond to patient concerns on weekends or evenings. As a nurse I like to communicate directly with her so try to do that communication when I know she is available as I know she knows me best.

Dr Mennon took the time with me he found more cancer but she did not rush me she wanted to make sure all is good and if I had any contacts turns or questions to please call her she is a wonderful wonderful doctor

Dr Menon has always provided me with the truth and advised me on all care decisions.

I have said it before, and will say it again, Dr. Menon is exceptional!

Dr. Mennon is trying everything to keep me going with my cancer and she always spends time with me when I'm there

As a new patient, I appreciated her effort to get to know me as a person as well as a patient.

Dr. Menon went out of the way to answer my questions and, in response to at least one of them, promptly got an opinion from a second radiologist. She called me later in the day with that information.

Excellent care listens and explains things thoroughly

Dr. Menon has been my Oncologist since 2013. She has always been professional, compassionate and, in my treatments and outcomes, very successful. Dr. Menon is definately a shining star in the firmament of Froedtert Healthcare.

Dr Menon is very professional. She covers everything needed to keep me confident in the care I receive. I am very grateful having her as my Oncologist

Dr Menen and her team are wonderful! I've been going there for about 2 and 1/2 years and I have always been treated well there. I trust them and appreciate everything they have done for me.

Very thorough in explaining things. All qestions were answered when asked. Very patient did not rush me.

Dr. Menon is an EXCEPTIONAL oncology physician!

Doctor very knowledgeable about my file and case. She was very reassuring and calming. Very impressive.

First time visit for a previously diagnosed lung cancer. My primary care doctor is not in the Froedtert system. I sought the care at Froedtert because of its reputation for lung cancer care.
