Along with his laid back confident manner and of course the CV and experience in his field, Peabody and staff provided the time, follow up and treatment course that led to successful results in my cancer care. I would also like to specifically acknowledge his Fellow, Dr [ ] who was an integral reason for my confidence and comfort while being treated. When you're told you have a malignant cancer, generating confidence and the ability to eliminate fear as much as possible is key to successful outcomes.

Dr. Peabody truly is the definition of a caring doctor who wants to make sure you're alright. We can't ask for much more these days so it's nice to be able to come in, get seen on-time by a smiling face, and have a bunch of tests completed and gone through with you so you understand to give you the peace of mind you're searching for. I'm sure if there were a much worse off problem, Dr. Peabody would address that too and get you back to tip top shape as quickly and painlessly as possible where feasible. It's always a pleasure to visit his office!
