Dr. Hirschfeld was incredibly knowledgeable and was so easy to talk to. He acted like I was his only patient today, spending so much time with me with no distractions. And his “bedside manner” is amazing.

Dr. Hirschfeld took on my problem and made it his problem. We started chemo therapy on second week and many other procedures like frequent shots to increase white blood cells, imuno therapy every other week, constant blood work to test for prognosis and many other procedures that make you feel that your are being taken care of by right people when one is at the most vulnerable position.
