I had a right simple mastectomy on my breast due to a tumor. I am now cancer-free, but I do have 33 days of radiation treatment that started. Rita has called me on a daily basis to check on me, to make sure I am following up on my appointments and treatment. Rita has experienced the same health issues I have and has been there to guide me every step of the way. Without her, I'd be so lost in all of this as she gives me hope for my outcome.
Rita shows her compassion, empathy, and concerns. If ever I need some guidance or someone just to talk to, Rita is just a phone call away. I am almost certain that she treats all her patients this way. I am getting through this with Rita's help.
Rita is also an awesome resource. She assisted me in getting 3 prosthetic bras and helped me get a primary doctor.
