I was treated with the utmost respect and staff care. This was a frightening and worrisome time for me not knowing for sure what my outcome would be but Dr. Hussain and the nursing staff helped me feel safe and secure thru the radiation and all the appointments and I'm very grateful to them. I would n will tell everyone I know that Heartland Oncology are the best cancer unit around. Thank you Heartland Oncology for everything I'm in remission and feeling great. Sincerely Susan Kephart.
