    Everyone is so helpful. The medical professionals are not only professional but care and ask how…read moreyou are doing and take time to listen. We were so blessed to see the doctors here for a rare cancer. Anyone fighting cancer, definitely give Mofffitt a try.

    I came to Moffitt as soon as I found out I had head and neck cancer. They treated me well and…read moreseemed concerned. they told me the particular cancer I had was very easily treatable and I had a 95 percent of a full recovery. Then I explained that I was two and a half hours north of them and I had found a small clinic just 5 minutes from my house, as the treatment I needed would have required two treatments a day for six weeks. Suddenly, the tone changed, as did their body language. They told me if I went to the local clinic I was risking my life and would more then likely have a far less chance of recovering. Like they had a magic treatment of some sort. They tried their best to scare the hell out of me in plain English. While in fact I had noted the radiation machine they had and compared it to my local clinics. They had the very same machine and plan as my local clinic right in Lecanto Fl. I completed my 6 weeks of treatment and while it was rough, it did in fact help me. it's been 7 years. I would not recommend Moffitt at all for any type of cancer treatment. They didn't care about me or my situation. All they cared about was their numbers and studies. I love my Doctor. Dr Joey Bennitt. they did a great job and saved my life. If you get diagnosed with cancer, take a minute to really think about what will be the easiest for you and your family. these small clinics are a lot more personal and you see the same people every day during your treatment, while at Moffitt you never see the same people twice and they seem to be taking advantage of your diagnoses and will use it to their advantage to have you open your check book and say do what ever it takes. Truthfully, all the treatment facilities are the same and will do the exact same thing to help you. Don't fall for their scam. 7 years doing fine!

I was given bad medical advice from Dr. Manvar (a member of this practice). I was a former patient of Dr. Gupta's who ended up in ER and Dr. Manvar visited to check on me the following morning. He did not check with the Cardiologist that was treating me at the hospital before he recommended I stop taking blood thinners. Cardiologist was surprised I was given this advice -although I did not have blood clots I had a blockage in my LAD. Once billed I asked for reconsideration based on the experience I had - even offer to pay 50% for a visit that I did not ask for especially considering the medical advice given could have left me in danger. After 4 phone calls and lots of bureaucracy I paid the bill and am warning others to make better decisions with their healthcare and money!

    I cannot emphasize the difference in care I received at Moffitt. They don't make you come back for…read more800 different appointments, all in my first appointment I had an ultrasound and a biopsy. Not only that, but the staff is incredible, everyone top to bottom. I'm treated like someone who has a life that matters. They listen to me, they're knowledgeable. As I navigate an uncertain future I take great comfort in knowing I'm in good hands. That alone has reduced so much stress for me. I'm so grateful to Moffitt for the care I've so far received.

Which has just completed auxiliary services and will add a hospital in the near future. Care is very good good. Our drive is 1 hour depending upon traffic. So we try to schedule everything in one day if possible. It makes for a long day, but 1 day of FL traffic is enough for me. I think Moffitt is great, some things could be better but that's true for all treatment centers. My word of caution is that you don't select the Physician that has the most experience and has been there the longest time and is into researching, because the older they get the less they want to deal with patients and the more they want to do research, and they just want to make you comfortable and not treat you . This is my opinion only, and by all means do not select the physician that's the Department Head. They may sound great and wonderful on paper but if you disagree with them or ask to be referred to another physician, they all work under the Department Head.

    I usually don't write bad reviews. However THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED…read more The representative I spoke to named Jamie was unprofessional, rude, and moved in a rushed manner.. I could barely get a word in while speaking with her. I've never been so frustrated with someone to where I have to let the higher-ups know. Jamie, was pushy and wanted to get me off the phone. I'm not sure what her deal was. I was nothing but nice, however she gave a nice nasty approach that I did not like and continued to cut me off whenever I spoke. Then she continued saying, yes the doctor is a busy lady after all she is a specialist... Uh duhhh that's my point in calling for her help. Anyway, she could really use a course on " how to communicate with patients". I'm not a stupid human being. I am a person and I deserve the same level of respect I gave Jamie on that call. I shouldn't even be writing this. It has nothing to do with the actual Dr. Honestly, Jamie is not the person I want to reach when I call back to follow up. I hope she actually does her job and reaches out for my records so we can get the ball rolling on me being seen. I'm not even sure she did that. She gave me no reassurance. Patients that are scared, concerned, worried, or just needing to find answers shouldn't be treated like an uneducated bum. I wasn't nasty to Jamie. Not once. She should really work on her attitude. If you were ready to go home because it's 4:30, let someone else answer the phone. Sadly, it got to the point I had to continuously ask her to slow down and reassure her that " I understood she was asking questions for the purpose of the appointment." Word of advice for Jamie... BE A NICE HUMAN TO OTHERS. ALSO LET THE CALLER GET A WORD IN. DON'T BE SO TRANSACTIONAL. I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH BUT I HOPE YOU GET THROUGH IT. DO YOU KNOW WHERE THAT STARTS? WITH YOU BEING A GOOD HUMAN BEING TO OTHER HUMAN BEINGS NO MATTER WHO YOU THINK IS ON THE OTHER END OF THE CALL. DO BETTER NEXT TIME. By the end of the call she told me they'll reach out to the hospital for my records and get back to me in 2 weeks for an appointment... Are you kidding? That's insane. I have to see someone before I go back to my PCP visit. She wouldn't even let me get the word in that I needed a location in Tampa not Trinity. She didn't care, and that's okay because I don't either. So here's my review. Has nothing to do with Dr Jessica Stein but everything to do with Jamie who probably shouldn't have clocked in today... Signed - someone just looking for help and answers.
