Dr. Marcus was the perfect balance of kind, compassionate and straight forward. She understood how difficult of a situation my family and I were in, and took time to answer all the questions my family and I had for her. But at the same time I appreciated how when she was explaining things, she didn't beat around the bush or sugar coat. I truly felt seen and heard by her and her team, from first meeting her to getting my diagnositic laparoscopy - which she also did an amazing job on, leaving me with minimal scars. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.

She is great! At our first meeting, she was forward-looking. She did not dwell on why I developed cancer or on survival rates: neither of those details would have helped my treatment. She basically started with "Here is the plan we've developed for you: here's how we will treat your situation." I lived that approach. My treatment has gone really well. I am very glad that Dr. Marcus is my doctor.
