I met with Dr. Brian Ager (medical resident) first. WOW - He was very pleasant, understanding, caring and knowledgeable. He spoke about the radiation treatment with enthusiasm and openness that made me feel very comfortable. I spoke with Dr. Kokeny and Dr. Ager together. Dr. Kokeny described what would happen next in my treatment in great detail. I had a few questions. I felt very comfortable afterwards knowing what to expect and who would be there. I feel very fortunate to have such a smart, kind and caring doctor.
