Dr. Rachna Malani is one of a kind. She has taken the time to truly listen to me. To my fears, struggles, and has been one who takes my past medical traumas seriously. She treats me with compassion and respect. While other doctors in the past just ignore them. Because of Dr. Malani and her kindness and willingness to listen I've been open to start facing those past traumatic medical situations, so I can start healing from them. I'm so thankful for her and her team.
Kind, knowledgeable, always let's me ask all my questions and works on my timeline
She's a very knowledgeable, caring, and trusting Dr.
I'm not sure why I received this MD in the first place. Having no cancer would've probably kept me aside -- I'm not sure on that -- but she stepped up in every capacity. Very professional, very helpful, very concerned and completely reaching out in ways I'd never be able to predict.
Very engaged in care of my health and my progress as a patient.
Every time I meet with Dr. Malani I leave feeling more positive and hopeful, and I feel confident I can handle the journey ahead of me. She never makes me feel rushed and she takes time to ensure all of my questions are answered. Fighting cancer can feel so daunting at times, and having Dr. Malani on my care team makes me feel better equipped to navigate this process.
Dr. Malani met me with compassion and asked how I was doing. Not just with my treatment but, as a whole. She has helped me feel comfortable with discussing how I'm truly doing and not just putting on a front of being great. She truly cares and you're in great hands if she's your provider.
Very kind and patient
Dr. Malani is an exceptional provider, who truly cares for all of her patients. I appreciate that she wants to hear things from my prospective. She knows what I've been going through between visits. She cares for you as a whole person, not just your diagnosis. I feel seen and heard.
AMAZING Dr Malani is always smiling and so positive and answers all my questions and I never feel rushed.
Excellent, I received a lot of help and attention. [TRANSLATED]
Dr. Malani sat with me and answered all my questions. She is patient and truly listens. She cares about me as a whole and not just the diagnosis or test results. She includes me in the decision making process. Telling me that my voice is the one that matters most. I truly appreciate her and that she's my oncologist. This journey is hard enough. Having a compassionate oncologist makes all the difference.
Very kind and patient answered all my questions even when she had to repeat because I was struggling to keep all the info straight

Dr. Malani is a physician that truly cares about her patients. She takes the time to listen to everything they are facing. Her and her team truly are one of a kind. A safe place. I've never felt comfortable enough to cry in front of a provider before. I know she cares and I won't just be dismissed like many other providers I've had. She fights for the best care for her patients. I know I'm in good hands with her and her team.
Dr. Malani is one of the best providers. I love the way she communicates and she is always extremely thorough and patient in the way she responds to all of my questions. I am incredibly grateful to be in her care.
Dr. Malani listened to me and handled my emotions with great care. She helped relieve the anxiety that I was feeling after some health complications I had a couple weeks prior. She was compassionate in talking to me through it. I felt safe expressing how I was feeling. I'm thankful for her and her team.
She listened to everything I had to say, providing insight to any issues and concerns. I'm a little frazzled in getting a brain surgery to wipe out cancer, but having no cancer discovered. Dr Malani has kept an eye on me.
Dr. Malani is truly an incredible human and doctor. She cares about her patients and makes sure they receive the care that they need and deserve. She goes above and beyond.She talked with me about my treatment plan and just checked in to see how I was doing emotionally with everything we had just discussed.

Dr. Malani has been my oncologist now for 6 months and I can't say enough great things about her. She is compassionate and listens to me. She has made every appointment a good experience. Even the one where we had to discuss tumor growth and our next steps. I left that appointment with knowledge, a plan, and encouraged. Though it was a hard to hear she talked with me with such kindness. I'll forever be grateful for that. I am blessed to have her apart of my care team.
Dr Malani not only is very educated but she's makes us feel comfortable and takes the time to listen and she really does care

We are very grateful for the treatment and expertise Dr Malani and her team provides. They are very much with us in our cancer journey and are very engaged in how we are doing. We came from Texas for the specific treatment and have been very impressed by the care we have received. We have been very blessed!
Awesome team!
I had a difficult ability to explain my feelings'I went through so many observations, tests, evaluations, high care and extremely tough outlooks on me. In all honesty, I got interesting evaluations that were difficult to make. I watched a number of other patients that were far worse than I was. This medicinal spot is highly achievable in what I can see.
Dr. Malani is truly amazing and is a doctor who truly cares. She doesn't just see her patients as data. She has impressed not just me but every person I've brought with me to my appointments. They all leave telling me that I'm blessed to have her as my Doctor.
Never met her before the other day, but MD Malani hit me with great stuff. I have no idea just how important everything was in my treatments. I'm not certain how well I'm going to do, or if I've got more lifestyle in my future. My mind is blanketed in so many ways. Everyone from family to professional MD-connections have given me solid information.
Dr. Malani is a great Dr.
Dr Malanis is very kind, thorough, knowledgeable and professional.
Dr Malani is an amazing doctor. She is compassionate and truly listens. You can tell she cares and has a passion for what she does. She listens and I feel like a person and not just a cancer patient. I'm thankful for her being my doctor.
DR. MALNANI IS THE VERY BEST!
Es una Doctora muy profesional en su trabajo es muy amable y muy atenta
She's amazing dr
Very concerned about patient care, and well being beyond appointments.
Great to speak to patient with explaining and listening.
Dr Malani is wondeful.
Dr. Malani is caring and compassionate. More importantly, she is extremely competent. On every occasion now, she has immediately come to a diagnosis and treatment plan without unnecessary testing or hedging.
As being a caregiver things are understandable for me. Jeff does not understand well also can't hear well, so will nod like he understands, but doesn't have a clue.
Only problem I have with Dr. Malani is that the wait time to see her is long. Always behind schedule & it's stressful and upsetting especially when I'm already upset about my whole situation. My appointment was at 1:00 & I wasn't seen until after 3:00.
Dr. Malani is great. This time the wait was too long, however. My appointment was at 11:30 and we didn't see her until almost 1:00. I understand a bit of a wait, but 1.5 hours is too long.
Dr Malani is wonderful. A great addition to the medical staff.
Dr Malani was thorough, thoughtful and authoritative in her diagnosis and treatment plan. It was exactly what should happen during a consultation with an expert physician.
She is a fantastic and knowledgeable doctor. She's clearly concerned about my care, current status and future health. She explains complex issues eloquently and is honest and sincere.
She is very kind, caring and thorough. She's a great doctor
Dr Malani is extremely kind and compassionate. I know I'm in good hands with Dr Malani on my care team.
What I am there for is not very encouraging but I think she explained the options so we could understand them.
Very very caring. We were very blessed to have Dr. Malani taking care of my wife.
She was kind and knowledgeable, and very interested in how we were feeling. We are so grateful that we are going to be working with her.
Excellent, compassionate doctor.
Dr. Malani was obviously very busy and we had to wait about 45 minutes which is very unusual at HCi although it was not a problem in this case for us. Surprised that she was alone when she came in.
Extremely intelligent and very caring. Takes the time to explain your results to you in a way youll understand.
She listens and provides specific, professional advice based on current data.
I couldnt feel like Im in better hands, Dr. Malani is truly fantastic, caring and respectful. Ive never had so much confidence in another doctor before.
Always concerned and provides detailed and specific information/instructions
She is very kind. Seems extremely thorough. She explained all test results and further testing in a way I could understand, but left all decisions to me.
She explained procedures thoroughly and did not assume anything. She discussed options before any decisions were made. She was very kind.
She is amazing and comforting!
Again as before, so grateful to have her as my oncologist. Superb job in guiding me ( and my wife) through this journey.
Very kind and willing to spend time answering my questions. Very concerned about me and how I am tolerating my treatment.
I like how she repeated things until I understood them and could take notes. I also liked how she gave me treatment options with reading material to mull over.
Very knowledgeable and caring.
Great conversation. She explained everything very well.
Dr Malani is a very treatment driven provider. It has been hard to know all my options when shes very upfront with what she thinks the best route would be. She is very nice and smart.
Dr. Malani has been so great to work with. She is so kind, understanding, and seems to genuinely care for my well-being. I trust that she knows whats best for my care
Very helpful
She is truly a blessing.
