Patient Reviews
Jun 09, 2023
I met Dr Henson as a result of having an annual mammogram that showed "something unusual". I found him to be very knowledgeable, thorough in his explanations, and his schedule more "open" - so I was able to get in to see him within 2 weeks of the diagnosis - that was CRITICAL to me! I warned him that I do not do "waiting" well, and I wanted to move forward as fast as was possible I am also a person of faith, and asked him if he would join me in this process, with my faith at the center. He was willing - and I prayed at our first meeting. He performed the surgery, removing the tumor The incision was perfectly placed to take in the location of the tumor (upper quadrant) AND be able to reach in and take the lymph nodes as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr Henson for breast surgery - he has the knowledge, he uses the resources of the other specialists to complete the specific areas of expertise (radiology/oncology), but was able and willing to answer all my questions
