    She took out my port 4 months before the first date they gave me, when I asked. I really appreciated not waiting so long. Helped me get over itching side effect.

    Explained in an easy to understand manner and was very sensitive to the fact that I was not given complete diagnosis by my PCP. Very apologetic that I was not told complete information. The treatment and another biopsy may be needed.
