I only wish UVA was closer to home, otherwise, UVA's Cancer Center has been a grounding force in a year of uncertainty. Dr. Matthew Reilley happens to be the only specialist in my rare condition and I was referred to him last summer due to fear of potential spread. He is the nicest doctor I've ever encountered of any specialty, genuinely. He celebrates wins with you and is willing to see you as a unique patient. Even his staff has amazing things to say about him. On my last visit, I accidentally drove to the hospital rather than the Pantops location, which resulted in arriving late to my appointment. I felt terrible about it, but they were all soooo absurdly nice and still let me be seen, which I know is NOT the norm in medical practices. Overall, hopefully Dr. Reilley will remain my oncologist for the long haul. read more

My medial team is always prompt in responding and has never made me feel like I am a bother. I document everything in mychart for my team. I send my questions in advance of my appointments. Dr. Reed and Rachel are responsive and communicate extremely well. I rarely ever wait for anything at this clinic. Rachel is an amazing nurse. She is extremely upbeat. She makes being treated for cancer a lot more bearable! I am highly recommending Dr. Reed to others in my MPN Support Groups. The entire team is amazing. From Jessica the scheduler, the intake nurse, Rachel, Kim, Caroline, and Dr. Reed. They are patient and I never feel rushed. I know if I wait a couple minutes for Dr. Reed it is because he is giving another patient the exact same high level of care. I drive 3 hours each way every 2 weeks and would drive further to get to this team. Dr. Reed answers every question, checks back to ensure I understand everything he says. Rachel always comes in after and ensures I understand and walks me out. I can't ask for better or more compassionate care. Once I found this cancer center, A load was taken off my shoulders and placed on my medical team. My job is to fight cancer, they not only join me in that fight but I feel they are shouldering the responsibility and I have complete faith in them. I'm a doctor (not medical) and Dr. Reed and Rachel treat me as an educated person, allow me a seat at the table for my treatment planning, and I cannot ask for more. I feel empowered in my treatment planning, and I cannot ask for more. This is the second Cancer Center I have been to. Hands down, the experience is night and day. Thank you for all that the entire UVA Cancer Team does to provide top notch care to every patient. I truly feel like I am the only patient the team has and during my time there, it is 100% about me, not blood test numbers. read more

Dr. Fadul and his Physician's Assistant James Kearns were among the very best health care professionals I have ever met! They provided a very thorough exam, explained everything well, and answered every question. I cannot recommend them highly enough! read more

I have been here once before and will be returning soon for surgery. I have Dr. Cantrell and she is incredible. Hands down the most kind and caring doctor I have ever had. She took the time to explain everything to me and has an incredible bedside manner. All of the staff that worked with her were wonderful too. They understand how scary it can be to be in an oncologists office and treat you like they would want to be treated. I would recommend her and UVA to anyone who needs this kind of treatment. read more

Our only experience is with the UVA Cancer Center in Fishersville with Dr. Nicholas Paphitis. Think and research thoroughly before sending anyone there. Not senior or patient friendly. We would never, under any circumstances, return there. read more

The new cancer center, the Emily Couric Clinical Cancer Center, just opened last month. It features a meditation space, integrative medicine (mind and body), and is just gorgeous. Tomotherapy HD and other treatments offer the latest in high-tech cancer care. Really great job with this one, UVA. read more
