This "doc" who called me is not my oncologist but my GYN. He really is the most caring doctor I've ever had. Although, my oncologist is very kind too, this oncologist is new to me and I've only seen him once. He didn't "walk" with me through chemo and the like so not sure how he would have been through some of those fears although my gutt tells me very good as he SEEMS very very kind. I liked him a lot the first time I met him.
