Every member of the Sarcoma Team I have interacted with has been patient, caring, helpful and forthright in answering any questions I have asked. I get the feeling everyone of them cares about me as a person and will do everything necessary to ensure I get the best health care they can provide. As a Christian, I believe God guided me to seek care from Huntsman and has had his hand on my care givers through all I have been through. God and Huntsman are the reasons I am still alive today.
