What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr Garces is DEDICATED to his patients. I never felt like a cookie-cutter patient in his office. Early in treatment I experienced a miscommunication during and MRI...I shared my upset in an email, and the VERY next day, Dr. Garces called me. He apologized for a less than excellent experience ( in which he had no part) and assured me I would not experience such again...and I never did. He was also personally active in support activities, like the Hockey Game at the Dow Center. He is very special and perfect for his profession.

I Highly recommend Dr. Graces and his team for any and all oncologist surgeon needs. He made it known right from the start that it was my body my choice on which route I took and he would not try to sway my decision. My family and I were extremely comfortable with him and all the information he provide. Excellent Dr.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I will highly recommend Dr. Graces to anyone needing his service as an oncologist surgeon. He was very easy to talk with, made me feel extremely comfortable. He did not try to sway my decision. He gave me all information then time to make sure I was confident with my decision or if I wanted to change my mind. He made it clear right from the beginning that it was my body my choice. He walked my daughter and I step by step through what was going to happen. Leaving both of us very comfortable. I will utilize his services again should I need it for any of my oncology needs. Thank you Dr Grace's and your team. My family and I are very thankful to you all.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr Garces is a very upbeat person. His manner is very reassuring when you are in a highly emotional state due to your health condition. He listens and makes you feel confident in your decision and his abilities. The pre-operative meeting and addional reading information offered were very helpful. Any questions I had after the meeting regarding the procedure were answered very quickly. When you are first diagnosed with breast cancer, it is very stressful picking a surgeon. All the breast surgery nurses I spoke with at Tawas were highly complimentary of Dr. Garces, reinforcing my decision to have him do my surgery. I needed that reassurance in the beginning. In summary, I appreciated his honest, positive, and straight forward manner and would recommend him to anyone needing breast cancer surgery.
