How likely are you to recommend Dr. Porter?
Think DAILY radiation treatments for breast cancer for FOUR weeks. Then add doing it during a Pandemic! How awful you may think. Yup. pretty much my reaction when this happened to me. But fortunately the staff at Porter Radiation on Bee Ridge Road took "awful" and turned it into "OK, this I can do!" From the gals at the front desk to the radiation technicians (shout out to Tracy) and staff nurse it was a processional and smoothly run experience in a friendly and caring environment. Thank you Dr. Porter and staff!
