Something is wrong with the way these guys treated me as a patient...., Feb 5, 2012 Very questionable in my opinion. I won't go back. They nickle and dimed me for everything. When I had insurance, I did not really pay attention but now, I see that they are out of balance with regard to patient care vs insurance company care. Whats funny is, when I lost my insurance, all of a sudden, all treatment options became available and they started billing me for every little thing including phone calls to work out prescription issues. Just very yucky... |

Provided extremely poor treatment for my father's cancer..., Jan 25, 2012 Dr. D. treated my dad's throat cancer (a term he never used with any of us). Dad responded very well to chemo and would have to remain on chemo the rest of his life. (His tumor in his neck had burst and he had a nasty wound that he had to deal with, but even it was doing well as he was switched to a milder chemo routine to keep the cancer from growing. And he was doing really well with that treatment.) Dad developed a knee infection and Dr. D stopped all treatment until knee doc released him. Dr. D continued to ignore my phone calls that dad's neck wound was really looking bad, saying he could do nothing for him at this time. Finally, knee doc suggested knee treatment be put on hold so cancer could be treated. So Dad went to see Dr. D and he still said there wasn't anything he could do right now, and he refused to look at his neck when asked to (of course, dad kept it bandaged). We brought dad to Louisville for treatment, but it was too late by then. The oncology doctors in Louisville were just mortified at his neck and the treatment he had received. They found it unimaginable that Dr. D. never looked at his neck (the actual cancer) and ignored his cancer treatment during the course of treatment of the knee infection (9 weeks approximately). Of course, we are heartbroken. I only tell my story in the hopes of helping someone else. In the end, dad regretted mine and my sister's pleas to get a second opinion in Louisville from the beginning. That one step could have changed everything. I hope this review helps someone make a better choice in choosing their oncologist. |

definitely not the doctor for me or my family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..., Jan 6, 2012 Judgemental, egotistical, talks down to patients. Pushes way too many medications and unnecessary tests on patients. Hard to reach during business hours, let alone not being able to reach in the evening or weekends. |

Kenneth haft good lung doctor richmond virginia !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..., Dec 4, 2011 Dr. Haft is a busy but caring young man. His knowledge and caring is so refreshing at this time when doctors just want to spend 5 minutes with you. He makes you feel very comfortable and at ease despite the severity of Medical problems he deals with. My family doctor speaks very highly of him |
