Dr Deming has provided expert care and kindness to my husband and I for over 30 years. He is the best of the best!

Even though I'm certain I'm among multiple patients he meets, I felt his empathy and understanding. He was very patient and took his time to address my issues. It's hard to explain to other people just how much how cancer affects not just your body but also your emotions.

I got to my appointment about 45 minutes early. My appointment was for 10:30. At 10:00, Dr Demings nurse came out and said the 10:00 appointment couldn’t make it and instead of leaving me waiting, they had me see Dr Deming then. WHAT DOCTOR DOES THAT?!? Usually the patient waits for long periods to see the doctor! Not Dr Deming! He cares! He suggested several of the other services the hospital has. I am definitely looking into them. He truly is remarkable!

Dr. Deming is simply the best physician I've ever known!

I have been praying to locate a medical resource that cares for all aspects of me, not just the cancer, and this was an answer to that prayer. To be treated respectfully and not dismissed was most amazing.
