Patient Reviews
Excellent man and physician. He is a compassionate and highly competent professional practicing medicine in the difficult, emotional and life-and-death arena of cancer. My experience with him in every facet of treatment is praiseworthy and thus, I wholeheartedly recommend him without pause or reservation. – J.M., February 2021
Professional, caring! Dr. Ward is truly a compassionate oncologist. Highly recommended. – L.S., February 2021
Dr. Ward has been treating me for extented prostate cancer for four years. I have a lot of confidence in his treatment. And, I appreciate the time he takes to answer questions. It will be an ongoing appointment. – C.W., January 2021
I have been Dr Ward's patient for 2 1/2 years. Dr Ward was the first doctor I saw once I was diagnosed and I believe he was sent to me from God. From my initial encounter with him (when I was in shock from my cancer diagnosis) to today, I have total confidence in him and his staff. I was approved to be in a clinical trial. Every step of the way, Dr Ward explained what was going on, what to expect and listened. Dr Ward always answered my and my husband’s questions and spent the time needed to make sure I/we understood what to expect. – J., November 2020
