Reviews of UVA Cancer Center (Hospital)

Hazel THomas

Dr Fadul and his PA James Kearnes performed the most thorough neurolocigal exam I have ever seen, and that's saying a lot since I am an RN. They answered all questions, and we're so kind and compassionate, and very knowledgeable. Everyone was professional and caring from the registration desk to checkout. I would highly recommend this practice!!!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer Feb 8th I couldn't have asked to be at a better place. I transferred to UVA because they really are the BEST!! You name it they do it respect, caring, everyone truly is so kind!! Ever since I've been here I've been happier they care about me and my wants and needs they are taking wonderful care of me each and every time! Thank you UVA!!!!

The Keeper Of Secrets

Don't be mislead by the reports saying this is one of the best hospitals for cancer treatment. They literally only say that because they have the latest technology, which doesn't mean much if none of the staff know how to use it. I hate people who go on Google for five minutes and think they know as much as someone who's spent 10+ years in medical school, but I'm not even kidding when I say these doctors act like they've never had any formal training in the field. You'd find more qualified doctors in a cemetery. It's pretty sad. Oh, and speaking of this being one of the best hospitals, the only reason they have such stellar reviews is because they will delete all the bad ones whenever possible. I left an honest 1-star review on their FB page a while back. They deleted it and blocked me from their page. Pretty shady, if you ask me. Ultimately, I ended up having to go to a totally different doctor at a totally different facility (just like every former patient I've spoken to). Why, you may ask? Well, my doctor put me on a medication claiming it would cure my cancer. But the twist is, there are absolutely no studies in existence showing this medication cures cancer. And you know why this medication was recommended? The doctor didn't feel comfortable performing the necessary surgery (hysterectomy) on someone my age, so instead of, I don't know, referring me to a doctor who WAS comfortable, she proceeded to lie to me for several months. I confronted her about this and she STRAIGHT UP ADMITTED that my findings were correct about how this medication does not cure cancer and she started talking down to me about how I'm too young to make that sort of decision (30 is too young to consent to a necessary medical procedure? Um, okayyyyyy? That's news to me). I'm not even kidding when I say I'm seeing a therapist now, because when your doctor does that sort of thing to you, it really messes you up in the head, and living with cancer for several months had me dangerously suicidal already. I went home that day and my family literally had to wrestle a gun out of my hands to keep me from shooting myself. So long story short, these people literally drove me crazy and I almost died because they don't have a clue what they're doing. Stay as far away from this place as you can.

My wife(Judy Headden) just had lung cancer surgery at UVA! This was the most awesome surgical team and nursing staff we have ever seen. Dr. Krupnick and the nursing staff on 4west are phenomenal!! The care team and Philip(nutritionist) were an awesome start to her days there. With Love Judy
