My dad was diagnosed with AML at the age of 77 and was given around 3 months to live without chemo. Dr. Schmulbach was extremely caring, honest and attentive. My dad went with chemo (had so many near death moments) with Dr. by his side. Proud to announce that my dad will be celebrating his 80th birthday next month. I would 100% recommend Dr. Schmulbach.

I saw Dr. Schmulbach for breast cancer. He was VERY attentive, empathic and professional. He is so caring!!! When I emailed him, he responded right away with excellent advice. Earlier this year I was very Ill with the flu and in ICU. He checked on me often and really gave me hope. I had a full recovery. HE IS THE BEST!!

Warm and friendly Dr. I trust. He knows me and my preferences. Always answers emails and doesn't rush office visits. Good advice always.

Right now it is fresh in my mind but I cannot comment too much about this....i tried to get a different oncologist, got a second opinion but she would not take me on as a patient and referred me back to this doctor whose email manners are blunt and lack empathy. Enough said for now.
