Dr. Su has been my oncologist since my diagnosis October 2009. He is very professional, knowledgeable, persistent in finding the best treatment and such a kind hearted physician who truly cares about his patients. He has given me the gift of time along with my support system and the grace of God. I highly recommend him and the entire facility. Wonderful people!

Once I was diagnosed with cancer Dr Su took primary responsibility for my treatment. He was a very professional and knowledgable doctor. He navigated my wife and I through my treatment and recovery. He laid out a comprehensive treatment plan on paper so we could easily follow and track my treatment plan. He made sure I knew what side effects to expect as the chemo and radiation cycle progressed. I would highly recommend Dr Su to any family member or friend.
