    My experience was wonderful, especially with Doctor Fiveash, he really made me feel better about my problems comfortable I guess you could say and also all the folks in the radiation room. They were wonderful.

    The doctors and staff were great as my husband was to undergo brain radio surgery. Even after a rocky start by feeling like we weren't informed about the appointment as early as we'd like to have been, we were impressed with the whole staff in the department's kindness and friendly attitude. My husband's ringing the bell after the procedure was also a good experience after a scary procedure.

    Very timely and no wait time. Physician took time to explain procedure, risk and benefits and performed an assessment. Explained things well. Also worked to get my mapping, scans and treatment scheduled timely.

    Yes. When we arrived to Hazelrig, it was kind of a rush-hour. The parking attendants were superb in handling all of us getting our cars parked so we could proceed into our appointments. They were fun, nice, positive, personable – – I cannot compliment them enough. Thank you so much!!😊
