    Doctor Baron is a superb provider who listens, responds with intelligent suggestions and advice and contemplates the implications of patient input and test results. I have to believe that oncology is challenging both intellectually and emotionally and I hope that someone so dedicated and committed to her field can stay the course. We will all benefit.
