I find Dr. O to be one of the most compassionate doctors I’ve ever gone to along with her very personable demeanor.She is always ready to solve any problem I’m having and always knows what to do in each case. I’ve been under her care for about 10 months and couldn’t have chosen a better oncologist.

Excellent compassionate oncologist
I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer and upon completing my chemotherapy I was told by my oncologist that I should return for a PET scan in 3-4 months with no other treatment. I felt hopeless and lost. I decided to change oncologists and Dr. O’Shaugnessy was highly recommended. After telling her my story, she looked at me and said you need a plan! Just what I needed to hear. I was immediately put on a new drug regimen and monthly visits. I currently have no evidence of disease. Dr. O’Shaughnessy is excellent and gives you confidence you are getting the best and most up to date medical care. She listens and answers questions. More importantly, she is compassionate and positive. I feel like I have someone in my corner fighting this disease with me. Her staff is excellent too. I highly recommend her.

AMAZING
Dr. O'Shaughnessy is known almost worldwide. I went to MD Anderson to get a second opinion and when they found out I had my initial visit with Dr. O in Dallas, MD Anderson told me that I was in the BEST HANDS. She takes her time and is amazing and thorough.

Excellent doctor and staff
I have been seeing Dr. O'Shaughnessy since July 2022 for IDC breast cancer. She and her staff are top notch. They are all very knowledgeable, take the time while in the office to answer all my questions and are very responsive when calling, always getting back to me very timely and with solutions. And most importantly, the treatment plan prescribed has worked! My cancer is undetectable now. Very impressed with Dr. O and her entire staff.

Dr. O'Shaughnessy is proactive with my treatment. I've been with her since I was 1st diagnosed 20 years ago. She reminds me of scans and MRIs that must be taken regularly. I am incredibly happy with my care, and I know she's quite knowledgeable about cancer care and treatment!
