I have been fortunate enough to have had Dr. Atwal for my Cancer Care and treatments for just over 2 years now. I just can't say enough wonderful things about him, his professionalism, friendliness, competence, and the quality of care I have had while under his dedicated care. Before my treatments started, I had considerable hesitation to undertake the medical infusion treatments because of possible "side effects". Dr. Atwal guided me through the decision-making process. It was his warmth, thoroughness, and sincere concern for me that convinced me to proceed. Now 2 years later, I had virtually no unpleasantness, and my PSA tests now reveal that the treatments were a success. I couldn't be more grateful to him. I will continue to see Dr. Atwal for follow-up visits and I am fully confident that he will monitor my health and do his very best to keep me well in the upcoming years. What a blessing Dr. Atwal has been and will continue to be! [redacted]

I have nothing but good things to say about this Onco office. however my good feelings for WDH itself has deteriorated. Based on my last inpatient tx, I now know that all the fancy words in you 'goal to include patients in consultation about their care' when in WDH is not worth the paper it is written on. For this I am so sad, for myself and future patients.
