Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Terrible old school cancer oncologist
She tried to harm my wife by not following the 2 chemo treatment and then a scan on a 7 inch lung tumor. when she scheduled a 3rd treatment we contacted her,she brow beat my wife at the next visit and said You want treatment or should I call Hospice. I called her out on this and she said "cancer treatment protocol is 5 treatments then a scan" This is an old school Dr that does not stay up with the times, she is terrible and to old to practice. I had to call the Patient Advocate on this inconciderat mean person and get a new Oncologist.. The Good Lord gave us Dr. Grace Dy, she saved my wifes life and She is now 3 yrs cancer free after a 4 inch brain tumor and 7 inch lung tumor.

Dr early insisted on seeing me before refilling my prescription. Office made appointment & mailed date/time to me. Got here and Dr Early is on vacation all week! Four hours of driving, a day’s pay and a huge bill to NOT see Doctor. The PA standing in was very GOOD and answered questions that I’ve been asking for 2 years

I have been a patient of Dr Early for 17 years. Dr Early is very thorough and very attentive. When I have a test Dr Early contacts me personally if there is a problem. I left Buffalo Medical Group to follow her to Roswell Park. I am very satisfied and have no regrets!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Early’s since I was diagnosed with lung cancer over 2 years ago. The care that I receive from her and the rest of the staff at Roswell Park Amherst Center is exceptional! I wouldn’t ever consider seeing another physician or going to a different facility. She’s always caring, positive, and uplifting. I can easily get in touch with her with any questions or concerns outside of my appointments. She’s very knowledgeable and up to date on the latest treatments. She saved my life and I can’t recommend her enough.

Dr. Early is a caring and compassionate physician, but beyond that she’s an excellent doctor. She’s extremely observant and will go the extra mile or 100 miles that it takes to make sure you are doing as well as humanly possible. She is very aware of new developments in her field . She manages to stay fresh and keep that caring attitude.
