Dr. Albert Begas, MD

My son-in-law had lung cancer. Dr. Begas was treating him with radiation therapy. Dr. Begas never suggested Proton therapy. Not once did Dr. Begas suggest that my son-in-law should put in a stomach feeding tube to give him some nutrition. His esophagus was burnt from the radiation therapy therefore he couldn’t eat and was losing a tremendous amount of weight. Dr. Begas insisted that my son-in-law have more radiation therapy even though my son-in-law had lost 35 lbs. Other doctors didn’t want him to have the radiation therapy at that time because he was to malnourished and weak and they told him they were afraid he would die if he had the radiation therapy at that time. Dr. Begas insisted that my son-in-law have the radiation therapy or else Dr. Begas would call Hospice for my son-in-law. My son-in-law listened to Dr Begas and he had the radiation therapy. 6 weeks later my son-in-law was dead.

Getting cancer is horrible...it is horrifying, frightning and just such an awful thing and for me i really did not know how i would get through it. Part of that answer for me was and still is Dr. Begas. He is warm, caring, and helps you get through the mess of it. From day 1 he clearly explained every step and asked me questions and listened to my thoughts and included them in the plan to my recovery. He does not rush you through visits and you do not feel like you are just another file. If you are faced with this horrible disease i would strongly recommend him and the team at Lynn Cancer, you will be in good hands.

Dr.Begas is a warm,caring professional. I look forward to my visits.

I was lucky to find him

He makes a bad experience better.

Dr. Begas is my wife's oncologist for breast cancer. He is one of the most caring and capable physicians I have ever encountered. He treats my wife with such care and concern it as if she is member of his family. He calms your fears and explains the whys and hows of everything in plain language. Words cannot say enough about my respect and admiration of this physician,

From the moment I met this doctor and as scared as I was, he made me free completely at ease and spent time with me and my family explaining exactly what was going to happen. Highly recommend!

when I didnt think I could go through chemo I canceled my appointment Dr Begas called me! He helped me to understand the process better by explaining things and then left it up to me to make an informed decision. I told him I was scared and he and P.A. julie told me they would be there for me every step of the way-for 14 months! When I would get a bit overwhelmed and that is not often they would make it easy for. whether in the chemo room great staff cant say enough or with barbara pearl their social worker what a help. never thought I would say emotionally chemo was a breeze

He saved my life!

AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED DR.BEGAS CANNOT HAVE AN EQUAL IN HIS FIELD. WHENEVER I MENTION THAT I AM BEING TREATED BY HIM ALL CONVERSATION STOPS,AND QUESTIONS START COMING.HOW DID I GET TO BECOME HIS PATIENT?,I HEARD HIS STAFF IS WONDERFUL,HOW ABOUT YOUR OPINION? I AM ALWAYS VERY POSITIVE BECAUSE PEOPLE WHO ASK THESE QUESTIONS NEED HONESTY AND COMPASSION AND I KNOW THEY GET JUST THAT FROM HIM AND HIS FINE TEAM.
