Dr. Teven thoroughly explained the procedure, was very professional in his approach to my issue, was very gentle and concerned about my level of discomfort…making sure that the pain was mitigated to the greatest degree possible. His explanation of after care was easy to follow, assuring a timely recovery and healing. Dr. Teven’s warm and friendly personality were reassuring and calming.

Dr. Teven is, without a doubt, the kindest, most affable, and empathetic physician I have ever encountered in my way too broad experience. He is reassuring at every step and encourages questions, which he answers completely and in a fashion that I could understand. Dr. Teven explains options, the pluses and minuses of each and walked me through the decision making process.Although I would prefer not seeing him on a professional level for future problem(enough of this cancer and it’s unexpected surprises), I would recommend him to anyone needing his services (and would love meeting him for coffee on a non medical level).

Dr.Teven was friendly and warmly welcomed me. When he asked my reason for seeing him, he listened carefully and then examined me. The suggestions he made for my care are, I believe, the best options for me. I look forward to seeing him in the future to follow up on what more needs or does not need to be done for my issue.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
