I was in NYU hospital when Dr. Blanca Vazquez was my doctor. I complained multiple times about extreme stomach pain. Another MD asked that she get an abdominal CT scan to rule out cancer. She did NOTHING!! I mean NOTHING! She MISSED a STAGE 4 CANCER diagnosis due to her self-absorbed arrogant behavior.
