In patients' words

"I trust Dr. Erickson with my life! She is very intelligent, so compassionate. She will sit , look you face to face and explain the situation at hand."

— Healthgrades reviewer

"Dr. Dugan's response to questions ran from dismissive to condescending. ... We were left with the sense that NECS manages a rout process when treating cancer patients that at times has little to do with the individual patient."

— LocalityBiz reviewer
