Dr. Santa-Maria was open, made me feel relaxed, answered questions without making me feel that I'd asked a "stupid question". He made me feel at ease. The technician who took vitals was VERY kind to me while taking my "vitals". Unfortunately, I do not remember her name.

Excellent team working with Dr. Santa-Maria

Dec 15, 2025
The majority of face-to-face time I spent with a care provider was with a nurse. She was excellent. I spent much less time with Dr. Santa-Maria, which is fine. I actually have no direct way to assess the quality of care he provides behind the scenes as an oncologist doing what an oncologist does since I have not yet begun actual treatment.
