cCare San Marcos evidently has a flawed patient appointment management system. The staff there are…read moreall very friendly but they don't keep track of how long their patients wait to see their doctor after they have checked in. This is not a complaint about the wait. After all, these doctors are cancer specialists. I have no expectation to hold them to a clock when they could be delivering some pretty tough news to another patient who rightfully can be asking one question after another. Those patients and their doctors should have every opportunity to converse, without a ticking clock. But here's the problem. I arrived for my appointment 10 minutes before its scheduled start. After an hour of waiting, I had to leave for another scheduled appointment elsewhere. Had I known at check-in the doctor was running late, I might have been able to reschedule the other following appointment. As it turned out, I just had to leave, which I did after telling the waiting room receptionist. She was apologetic, as was the doctor's nurse who called my cell phone as I was driving away. But this is a system failure, not a medical misdiagnosis. The cCare office needs scheduling software that alerts them if a patient has been waiting for 15 minutes beyond their scheduled appointment. So alerted, they can tell the waiting patient the situation and give them the opportunity to make a decision to either wait or reschedule. The nurse who called me said she would email me dates to reschedule. I write this four hours after leaving and have yet to see that email. Maybe I am being too kind in blaming the cCare system. I hope not.

You…read moreneed someone who knows what they're doing, and can help you navigate all the tests, treatments, and side effects of the road ahead. Dr McClay is an amazing doctor. He is always caring, informed, and motivated to make sure you are as well as you possibly can be. He is genuinely concerned about how you're doing, and what he can do to help you along. He also notices other issues that come up, and refers me to the right specialist to take care of the situation. As well as conventional treatments like chemo and radiation, he also believes in more holistic approaches through nutrition and supplements. His suggestions of things like berries, vitamin D, and collagen really helped me improve my body and immune system after it was ravaged by the chemicals used in my treatments. I am happy to have Dr McClay on my team, keeping me on the right track. Don't hesitate to choose him as your doctor, if you find yourself in need of an oncologist. You won't regret it.

Five years out, I am free of prostate cancer and have had very thorough follow up with Dr. Linson twice yearly. Last winter, I had significant hip pain and Dr. Linson treated me with 15 rounds of photon beam radiation for a lesion caused by multiple myeloma. He has been very helpful in guiding me in treatment and following my case even after I was handed off to a hematology oncologist. I have the greatest respect for him as a man and as a doctor.

I was told by multiple Dr.'s that my hot flashes were normal and common at the age of 32. I first thought "why is she asking questions that are irreverent to why I'm here?" It was odd to me that a Dr. would ask so many questions about my eating habits, stress level, etc. since most of us are used to saying what our symptoms are and getting aspirin or Tylenol or in my case "it's normal" and walking out feeling hopeless. I came in with zero exceptions and she truly changed my life. Not only did my hot flashes went away but the constipation I been dealing with since I was 7 years old is nonexistence now. The care and the research she puts in for her patience is remarkable! I am so grateful for this amazing "new" life she has provided for me and my family.
