Dr. Marcus did an excellent job of explaining everything in detail at our appointment prior to surgery. I'm assuming she also did an excellent job with the surgery itself because I am healing very well and without incident. Her staff are also exceptional.

My oncology team - Dr. Marcus and Diane [last name] - treat me like a human being. They understand my fear and spend whatever time needed to make me comfortable. They explain everything clearly and allow my out-of-state children to participate in my appointments via phone and/or zoom. In a very, very uncomfortable and scary situation, my team treats me in a way that makes me know that I am in the exact right place to get the best care.

As stated above, Dr. Marcus knows the details of my case before she walks in the door. She is always prepared for the appointment and makes me feel like she is on my side. She listens and takes my concerns seriously. She is very kind and personable. I was under a different doctor's (at a different organization) care and didn't feel cared about at all. I felt alone and in a scary place. That all changed when I switched to NM and Dr. Marcus and her team.
