Patient Reviews
May 29, 2021
Dr. Capko is an amazing person who will help you walk through the diagnosis and the options to address the type of breast cancer you have. I asked her to pick her team consisting of radiology, plastics etc. and they all were equally impressive, having spent a lot of time reviewing my case. I think that Dr. Capko will personally call her patients and ask them how they are doing and talk about treatment options at 7:30 at night is pretty incredible. Always available, extremely energetic, and deeply caring, I couldn't have imagined a better outcome than having met her and picking her to be the captain on my team. More to go, but she's really really wonderful. Post surgery, she called my husband right away to tell him how it went and the results. She's all about her patients.
