Dr. Savan was my Oncologist in 2005 for Hodgkins Lymphoma. I clearly survived with the conventional treatment he recommended but at many costs in my life. When I told him at the age of 24 that I wanted to try natural alternatives to cure or at least supplement my healing, his response was “Leave the Hocus Pocus alone” That ignorant comment has stuck with me my entire life. I guess I should thank him though, I have spent my life finding all the ways he was wrong. Run fast, he is the traditional Western and uneducated doctor you have been warned about.

GO ELSEWHERE! Dr. does not like to be questioned. He was not prepared nor knowledgeable with my condition, even suggested what I told him contradicted each other before receiving results. He could not answer my questions and hurried me out the door. Results confirmed my explanation and when provided treatment, Dr. suggests one treatment w/o exploring other options for treatment. Dr. in a hurry to implement treatment w/o full diagnosis and will stretch the treatment into a series of sessions when there are more cost effective solutions. Please find another doctor that doesn't treat you as a dollar sign!

Patient/doctor communication is minimal. Dr. is not receptive to questions. Dr. suggests one treatment w/o exploring other options for treatment. Dr. in a hurry to implement treatment w/o full diagnosis. Will not be going back to this cancer doctor. If you have questions and wants answers...seek out another doctor.

This is a very caring practice. Dr. Saven makes a point of helping a confused, frightened patient understand treatment and alternatives. The nursing staff could not be better. Hope I don't need their services again, but I'd gladly travel a great distance for their care if I did.
