Janet was great and very helpful in terms of explaining my pathology report to me as it was a bit comfusing to me. She also took measurements of my arm and was super friendly and made the recommendation to buy a certain type of sleeve for lymphedema. I like that she was concerned about a lump on my breast post sugery she said It could be scar tissue. Just to be on the safe side I should have it looked at. I appreciate that she is showing concern and that it could possibly be something else, so, she doesn't minimize and I like that. Anyhow, she has a plan moving forward for my treatment as this was my first visit. She is professional, warm and friendly. Actually, Janet is the first professional that showed concern about my breast lump post surgery and I think this says a lot about her professionally.

Janet has been an absolute rescuer throughout my breast cancer journey. She expertly treated my cording post-axillary node dissection, provided essential lymph drainage during chemo, and helped with range of motion issues after radiation. Her knowledge and expertise far surpass anyone on my oncology or surgery team. Janet is at the forefront of modern treatment protocols and research, always able to answer my questions better than any book, doctor, or Google search could. I am so grateful I made that first appointment with her a year ago. Whenever a pesky symptom arises, I know to go straight to Janet. Highly recommend!
