When a women gets a diagnosis of breast cancer her whole world begins to spin. Especially if she is a mom.
I was diagnosed on October 20, 2020. Dr. Hoffman was my oncologist for 4 years and he ALWAYS made me feel uncomfortable.
There were countless times I wanted to find another dr. but the thought of going thru that process felt incredibly daunting when I just wanted to get it all over with (who knew at the time the real journey starts after surgery & radiation.)
I didn't like the way he spoke to me. He was incredibly condescending. Smug. Pompous. Arrogant. These are some words that come to mind. I found myself answering questions and not elaborating so I didn't have to deal with him. My appointments became a means to an end. Take my blood and continue my prescription on the drug I never wanted to be taking in the first place.
I ALWAYS made Greg come with me and sit in the room with me. How fortunate I had that luxury.
My heart is breaking 💔 to think of all of the women he took advantage of at their most vulnerable moments.
