Dr. Frank Stockdale has been my oncologist for 21 years. I rate him 5 stars. Best compassion & beside manner. Excellent communication! Couldn't do more!
SHC Patient, Mar 2018
Being that Dr. Stockdale was so behind, I suppose that could account for his brusque manner. Overall he seemed VERY thorough in his assessment although I got the impression he thought his time was "wasted,' dealing with me - a lowly DCIS patient. I think he 'knows his stuff' but his treatment ideology was 'old school' and his assessment style was very different from the other consult I had. I felt frightened & confused. 7. I dislike 'dumbed down' explanations & was grateful Dr. Stockdale didn't talk this way.
SHC Patient, Feb 2018
Amazing doctor - professional thoughtful.
