5.0 star star star star starDr. Strauss gave me great confidence in his assessment of my breast cancer situation. He was most professional and personable at the same time. His honest appraisal of my situation and what treatments were available and how they would be carried out were very clear. Because of Dr. Strauss' thorough and detailed explanations regarding my questionsI feel I am well able to make a decision that will be effective and I will be able to feel it to be good.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Strauss explained a range of options for radiation therapy recommended for my [ ]. This included one for no radiation at this time if an advanced test indicated that there was a low probability of recurrence and that radiation therapy was unlikely to improve the odds. Very rational, cost effective, and a huge relief. Had he recommended one of the options that called for radiation therapy due to different results from the additional lab test, I would have had confidence in him to follow his recommendation.

5.0 star star star star starHe has been very helpful to me. He arranged to have the loop recorder removed from my chest. I had the recorder in for eight or nine months with one ten minute rapid heart irregularity when I had Covid. It was more than time to remove it and I am grateful to Dr. Strauss for expediting it

5.0 star star star star starI found Dr Strauss to be very engaging, unhurried and focused on me specifically and radiation therapy as it relates to me knowing my demographic, my history and health status and most importantly risk associated with it as a treatment and risk assumed by me as the patient should I decide not to have it as part of my treatment plan. He really met all of my expectations and needs to assist me in having the facts to think about how I want to proceed with treatment. I would recommend him to anyone who needed radiation therapy as it relates to breast cancer. I am grateful to him for a wonderful consultation. Should I decide that radiation therapy is going to be for me I would definitely want him to be my Radiation Oncologist.
