    HUNTSMAN CANCER CENTER

    Dr. Strain is very caring and explains in detail the results of the MRIs. His caring and positive attitude always put myself and wife at ease. When these yearly reviews of my MRI are due, we are always anxiously awaiting the results. When Dr. Strain treated me in the hospital, he and his staff were constantly checking on me and always explained everything that had been done and what to expect.

    HUNTSMAN CANCER CENTER

    Dr. Strain is the doctor you hope you will get without knowing anything about him. He made me comfortable by reviewing my history and prior procedures and, without hesitation, suggested a more aggressive plan that sounded like how I would approach an elusive and not-quite-resolved problem. I have a good feeling about my upcoming relationship and treatment with Dr. Strain. I think and feel like this course of treatment will be just what I need to keep me enjoying my future.
