    I would not recommend Diablo Valley Oncology as an employer. My time there was, unfortunately, the…read moreworst experience of my professional career. I encountered an environment that was unprofessional and lacking in basic respect and kindness. Despite my ability to work well with a wide range of personalities and teams, I was met with hostility and poor treatment by members of my department. I believe everyone deserves a workplace culture rooted in mutual respect, and that was not my experience here. That said, I walked away with an important lesson: some situations are not worth fighting for, and protecting your own well-being must come first.

    Dr Matthew Sirott, Mariya Ryazantseva and the rest of the staff have been awesome. I give them…read moresooooo much credit for extending my wife's life to over 4X what her old doctors said she'd have a when first diagnosed(8+ years vs up to 1-2 years). This is such a difficult job, dealing with patients who quite often won't be around too long, but the nurses, assistants and doctors all tried everything that my insurance would approve. There were a lot of times that treatments or procedures were denied. My wife's cancer was vicious and aggressive. She tried every probably every chemo or immunotherapy on the market, did radiation multiple times, did infusions, had surgeries, and they always did their best to keep her truthfully informed, and keep her spirits up, even when the news wasn't good. Now my wife generally hates going to the doctor, but a trip to Diablo Valley was more like talking with friends for her. Now I will say to ask questions, and get all copies reports for yourself, so you can go home, and read and learn about what is happening. I think it was difficult doing this, but made everything make sense about what was happening. When you have a little knowledge about your treatment and conditions, the decisions are much easier to make in my opinion. I will miss my wife more than I can explain, but I truly believe they did their best to take care of Jerusha. Rest In Peace.

    One year ago, my Mom was diagnosed with 3-4 stage non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We transferred her from…read moreNew York State and she was fortunate to enter the Jon Muir health system and be treated by Dr. Tang. Her treatment was nothing short of outstanding. Dr. Tang was caring yet firm, understanding and thorough. We tested and evaluated, and then settled on a course of treatment. Since Mom is 88 years old, Dr. Tang was concerned about the treatments themselves causing harm. We started slowly, at less than full dose, ramping dosage as Mom found she was able to tolerate the chemotherapy. Throughout it all, Dr. Tang was supportive, involved, concerned, and professional. She gave us encouragement and positivity when the treatment regimen was challenging, and reveled with us when Mom's PET scan came back negative. Dr. Tang truly invested herself in Mom's treatment, and it made a huge difference in her outcome. There is no question about recommending Dr. Tang - if you have been diagnosed with cancer, there is no better physician with the proper blend of medical expertise and professional care mixed with kindness and understanding.

    Dr. Tang is amazing. We came in at a late stage and she cared for my mom in a holistic manner…read more She not only addressed the cancer but also helped us navigate the myriad of specialists to assist with the side effects of the cancer. I never felt rushed at an appointment and my mother always felt heard. I can't thank her enough!

    Disclaimer: This review is my opinion and is written from my own perspective regarding my mother's…read moreexperience with Dr. Rahman. Other patients may have a differing experience with Dr. Rahman, but this review is from my family's own personal experience. Once again, this review does not speak for the experience other patients. My late mother Claire was a diagnosed with stage three lung cancer and was being treated by Dr. Rahman. My mother could not walk short or long distances because she was having difficulty breathing. From what I understand Dr. Rahmman did not provide my mother with a handicap placard for her vehicle; making it difficult for her to access businesses. My mother had previously beaten breast cancer over 20 years ago. So when it came time to chemotherapy, mom completed her treatment and was putting up a good fight. She was also receiving immunotherapy. In spite of her positive progress, our mother had difficulty breathing. My mother eventually could not walk because she could not breathe. Dr. Rahman knew my mother was being treated for lung cancer, but did not prescribe an oxygen tank for her to use until my brother pleaded with Dr. Rahman to prescribe one for her. One would think an oxygen tank would be one of the first items prescribed for a lung cancer patient. One early morning in 2018 my brother found my mom collapsed in the restroom. My brother escorted her to the living room. My brother attempted to communicate with my mother, but my mother was unable to communicate because Dr. Rahman prescribed Ambien. My mom could not breathe and passed away in my brother's arms. In my opinion my mother did not receive the best care from Dr. Rahman. After speaking with other medical professionals, we believe that our mother passed away from a blood clot because she could not walk due to shortness of breath. We were told informed by family members in the medical industry that blood thinners may have helped and possibly would have l prevented a blood clot from forming. My brother and I wondered how an oncologist would neglect to warn us of potential blood clots. Why wasn't our mother given a handicap placard or an oxygen tank? It's been 4 years and our lives are not the same, but I finally have the strength to write this review. Christmas, Thanksgiving, Mother's Day, and her birthday in August are all very painful days that no longer bring us joy. Writing this review will not bring our mother back, but I feel it is necessary to share our experience if others are seeking treatment from an oncologist.

He was the BEST, my Dr. for 25 yrs., then he retired....so far, I haven't found his equal! But, very thankfully, at almost 90, I'm still here!

While this disease affects millions, it doesn't always register to us, that people are battling this disease, daily, hourly, and in most cases, for years, until it becomes personal. That is also the case for my partner. We are incredibly grateful that Dr. Sirott took the time to be honest, direct and sensitive, to my partner's overall care, from day one, until even now, 3 years later. It is astounding to watch so many people, literally, put their lives, in the hands of a few, and watch them be free from their burden, with this disease. Even though my partner is not pain free, after undergoing surgery, chemotherapy, and a variety of other experiences, we are incredibly happy with the results, and the professionalism and care he received. He is still dealing with neuropathy, as a result of the chemo but Dr. Sirott has continually studied his case, provided detailed information on treatment options and never treats us as a "number". He remembers our names, asks about our family, and really gets to know his patients, on a deep and meaningful level. We could not have asked for a better team or care guardian. We feel incredibly lucky, especially in lieu of how many lose this fight, but we firmly believe, Dr. Sirott, is at the forefront of our success story.
