AvailableThis was the on staff oncologist at Summerlin Hospital the day I was admitted who told me I had 1 week to live. Completely misdiagnosed me, prescribed incorrect dosage on the medication, then refused to treat me in the hospital after 2 weeks because I was having difficulty getting insurance. He asked me every time he saw me, "Do you have insurance yet?" Yes, that's exactly what happened. And the consequences of this doctor's actions may cost me my life because he simply, literally, did not care whether I lived or died and the doctors at the rehab center had to take over and guess the course of my future treatment until I could see an oncologist that actually did have my best interest at heart. See this doctor at your own risk!!! When I did have a choice to pick the oncologist, I picked correctly. He is attempting to reverse the damage this doctor may have caused.
