When I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer, I quickly realized not all care is the same. I had…read moreinteractions with other providers along the way, but I never felt truly seen or prioritized--until I met Dr. Caravella. From the beginning, he treated my case with the urgency it deserved. There was no delay, no complacency--within two weeks of my diagnosis, he had me in surgery. Shortly after, he ensured my chemo port was placed so treatment could begin without interruption. What stood out just as much as his decisiveness was his empathy. He didn't approach me like just another case--he understood the gravity of what I was facing and made sure I felt it through his actions, not just his words. After surgery, I learned that 4 out of 17 lymph nodes tested positive. It made it clear how aggressive this was and how close it was to becoming fully metastatic. Waiting even a little longer could have changed everything. I understand that in medicine, there are systems, schedules, and metrics--just like in any profession. But from where I stand, this wasn't just another case. It was my life. Because of his ability to act quickly and his commitment to doing things the right way, I truly believe he saved my life. And while this may be part of what he does every day, it will never feel ordinary to me. I'll never forget it--thank you, Dr. Caravella, for giving me a second chance at life.

Pain lasted about a week, he prescribed meds that enabled me to be active almost immediately. The abdominal swelling was minimal. Discomfort a month later is very minimal.

My surgery ended up being at midnight so I didn't meet him until right before. As soon as I met him I knew I was in good hands. He was friendly and even joked a bit which I appreciated because it helped with my anxiety. Since my surgery was so late he told me that he wouldn't be seeing me before discharge which was fine given the late hour. However he met with my hubby after the surgery and explained how everything went which was well. I didn't get to the unit until 2 am just because it took awhile for me to wake up. I was discharged later that day after lunch. I scheduled a follow up for two weeks post op and that went well. He has a great bedside manner. His office was clean and the staff were all friendly. In fact, I made an appt for him to check out some vein issues I have. I'm glad he was the one on call that night! Highly recommend him!

Under his expert and intelligent care, I just had the best results I've had in a long time, I feel good and I knew that I would IF I did my part as a patient and LISTENED TO HIM, followed his instructions. I am now 8 lbs from my goal weight, my blood results are normal and for me that is a miracle. It's the middle of the year but it feels like Christmas because of the hope he gave me. This remains true, if you want the best Endocrinologist go to him. IF it's possible for you to wait for an appointment, do so because it will be worth it. Thank you DR.

However, the staff just not friendly or helpful... god forbid you have to call for more information, or something you need over the phone because they are so rude...

Many of the doctors around the area offer to do this, have apps and even chat systems... I recently had to ask to get information on a referral given to me and I misplaced it, the visits are around 3 months apart... I asked for the doctors phone number or location or if they could email me a copy, and they gave me the name and told me to google it... I google the name and it shows 3 doctors with the same name, great... quite shocking to be so unhelpful and uncaring...

I'm here due to an imbalance with iron deficiency that has occurred yet again . This time around I'm on my fifth infusion of iron. The staff have been spectacular in making sure that my care is paramount. Could you imagine the strife an individual has to endure here? Cancer patients from all walks of life? Their existence and will are so precious. Lots of these patients are super human. They deserve and have that will, it's just magical to see. Here anemia sure can cause an individual to be sick, but cancer is devastating. I believe in these walls the patients and staff make their lives better with the warmth they create . Again, who knows how long we have to endure here? Some days we just want to "stop fighting the good fight." Then we remember all those that are around us, we have so much to give. Kindness and love are what we need to deliver and show others how to live. And to be loved. They always say, "you have your health." This last year it's seemed blow after blow, being isolated and feeling my own pain it feels like dark. On every occasion that I've visited here especially, the lab the staff and other patients have always brought a smile to my heart. There is no judgement here. We all struggle. We all fight the good fight . We should spread kindness whenever possible. I have had too many close calls and encounters in life that I've been given. If today was your last chance would you keep on? Would you just give up. Mind you I don't have the struggles with cancer, my alignment is anemia. It's again on the other spectrum from cancer, anemia for whatever reason makes inconsistency in the body too. The deprivation of oxygen to the brain and heart are let's say's, "not great." This last year, five iron infusions and the intolerances that come from iron not made in the body is rough. Here I stand. I stand stronger, I'm not sure why? We are not to ask the why? We are going to keep reaching for the stars and making it happen each and everyday. Bring the energy of light and love to heal others. Never forget the "good fight." Even in the dark we can make it . You must search for the beacon. Follow the path and you will find the road.

I do not have cancer but I did have a few issues with blood clots, so I was referred to see Dr. Nguyen, as he is a hematologist as well as an oncologist. The location is nice. I've come to this medical center quite a few times, in other offices, so I'm glad CCC was here, for my comfort and for how easy the parking lot is. The waiting room has a good amount of seats, even if some people think it's a bit small. I love the fact that you can get your blood drawn here and that you can make an appointment for that. Every person I encountered, from the financial adviser, to the medical assistants, to the lab techs, to the doctor, is kind, supportive and helpful. I especially have to give a shout out to Dr. Nguyen. This man is not only professional and knows his stuff, but he seems to deeply care for people on a very personal level. I joked with my husband after my last appointment that I wonder if he writes down all of our info or if he has a super computer in his head and just remembers. I mean he literally remembers our conversations, even though they are months apart. Seeing me after my honeymoon, he remembered where we went and what pastry I wanted to get. That's how personable and comforting and caring he is. I truly believe he's so genuine about not only wanting to help you heal but making you happy. Scheduling an appointment is easier than easy and any time adjustment is needed, that's easy too. I wish all medical practices were run this way, I'd be way better at caring for my health then.
