The Dr explained test results one line at a time. And even had certain things highlighted to go over with us.left his office feeling much better with having a cancer diagnosis crazy as that seems.because of how he explained things and made me less scared of the outcome .
-
He was compassionate and answered all questions and made sure we understood. He put me at ease with his kindness.
-
Dr. Martinez made a thoughtful physical evaluation including an ultrasound for good measure. He showed me my tumor location exactly by using PET scan imaging and talked through the pros and cons of surgical removal of the tumor based on the location of the tumor. Dr. Martinez was engaging, kind, and relaxed in his manner, not rushing me to make a decision. He gave me time to ask questions regarding anatomy and possible routes of metastasis. Dr. Martinez Is a doctor who I rely on and have confidence in, when needing discernment with my health care. He has already done 2 tumor removal surgeries in 6 years with good visual and physical results. Dr. Martinez knows his surgical competency and will refer to another surgeon if a case is beyond his scope of practice.
