Overall great experience - doctor spend the time & explained the issue & answered all our questions
I did not get to see my Dr. Chapin. I saw a PA. I did not get any help deciding what decisions to make.
Outstanding! A+ overall and physician quality of care. A+ likelihood to recommend to family, friends, and colleagues.
Very good
Yes, everything was professional. Everything was well mounted. Everything was well received. They are good people. I recommend them to anybody.
Excellent
Best bedside manners, technically the best with surgical skills and excellent post surgical outcome
Good Visit
My colonoscopy today was the epitome of excellence and professionalism at the highest standard anywhere globally. It was just from start to finish, A to Z, it was absolutely outstanding. Thank you very much.
I would like to speak with Dr Chaplin to see if I get the growth in my urinary track treated if I could come back and have the Proton therapy done
Never actually see the Doctor, always see the PA. First time to see this PA. He listened and was fairly informed about my medical history.
Knowledgeable, understanding, compassionate
Dr. Chapin's staff was super, as they have been throughout my illness.
Great
I was very pleased with the care I received.
First class from the very beginning. I would not be responding to this survey if not for this medical provider and his team.
The entire team cares. As far as I am concerned, this team saved my life. What more is there to say.
Careful, thoughtful, listening, good follow up, good notes and immediate care and immediate notes in my chart which allowed me to follow my progress in my directions around the Medical Center
Ms. Raven was absolutely great. She took her time, she explained everything, she made me feel very comfortable as always. Dr. Chapman is top-notch surgeon. I haven't seen him, but she did a very good job.
Dr. Chapin was wonderful. I am healing quickly and satisfied with the surgery
MD Anderson is the most amazing place for health. I definitely know they have my best interests in mind.
Very good
Absolutely love Dr. Chapin and his entire team of gifted, caring, highly professional people!
God truly blessed me with the ability to be a patient at MD Anderson. We would NEVER go anywhere else. I want Dr. Chapin and his team to continue walking the journey to healing with me!
This provider is extremely thorough, listens well, and addresses all of my concerns and questions and gives me the kind of feedback so that I know exactly how I feel comfortable with what I'm being told and what I need to do going forward and what I can expect from them.
Dr. Chapin is very professional and straight forward, I appreciate that. His skill set is very apparent.
Excellent except for discrepency with the MRI
Very nice,compassion, professional, courteous and understanding of my health
Wonderful, attentive, concerned, helpful
I would definitely recommend my Doctor to others
I love this practice! I feel very confident that they know what I need and are doing what is best for me.
Courteous, professional, helpful, simplicity
Excellent provider. Explains the patients medical condition and procedures to help cure. Excellent listener.
Very thoughtful and useful conversation with Dr Chapin and Dr Monaco
It was totally different from everything that I've ever experienced, continue doing what you're doing!!!
I was unable to ask questions because I couldn't think. It was over quickly.
Great experience! My doctor was extremely thorough! I feel extremely confident with the entire team at MD Anderson!
I'm happy, very happy with this program.
Staff were professional, courteous and caring.
Very good
I have had a very good experience with MD Anderson, Dr Brian Chapin, Dr Asher George, and his entire team. I would highly recommend MDA and tis urology team.
Exceded our high expectations.
Visit fine but being " old school" I would feel more comfortable seeing a Dr. at least every other visit.
Overall very pleased with Dr Chapin, his team and the entire staff at MD Anderson. If I wasn't happy I wouldn't travel all the way from Atlanta for this care
Excellent
Great job
Very professional and easy to work with
Very good
As always, the provider was very professional, easy to talk to, and answered all concerns.
Excellent care.
