Joanna Y Tansky, MD, PhD

[redacted] Staff seems very confident and accommodating . very satisfied with the experience. Of course I wish that I didn't need a CT scan, lol but since I did, glad it was there .

Dr. Tansky put me at ease during my visit. She was knowledgeable and confident while explaining the treatment plan. Dr. Tansky also clearly discussed the potential side effects, wile not minimizing them; she explained how they would be managed, which I truly appreciated.

Dr Tansky is the nicest and best doctor I have ever seen!!!!!

My wife and daughter came with me for this appointment. It was a consultation about my prostate findings from my urologist. I was extremely stressed and from the nurse, to the physician, they explained everything to me. They picked up very quickly on my stress level and took the time to talk to me about my concerns. I, also my family left with no doubt or question that I will go with their recommendations and treatment plan with them.

I just wanted to say your facility was excellent. All the doctors and nurses were fantastic, very knowledgeable. They explained things really well, listened attentively. I felt like I was being taken care of very well. And I liked that you were always on time and you had the warm blankets for when I had my radiation treatment. So thank you so much again for such great care. Happy New Year.

Courteous, professional service

Best possible experience!
