Dr, Mohindra spent a lot of time explaining the type of cancer I have with diagrams and all. Her office was able to expedite follow up diagnostic tests that were supposed to take weeks but only took a couple of days and ensured we had the results by the time of my first appointment with her. She was able to start my cancer treatment immediately just one day after my initial consult with her. I feel there is a sense of urgency in everything she and her team are doing for my care.

Dr Mohindra gave me options for treatment that were not available in my area. She didn't advise me which options to choose, just made sure I knew them all. Ultimately, my overall health was good enough for lung surgery to remove most of the cancer. That made the chemotherapy treatments less aggressive, which made that portion of the treatment much more tolerable. She is very compassionate about what she does. I believe she helped me make the best decisions for my cancer treatment.
