My recent experience with Dr. Haigentz was Excellent!!! Dr. Haigentz is a Brilliant Oncology Specialist; knowledgeable, very understanding listens to my concerns, sensitive, took his time with me, and explained everything in detail about my health issues! … I immediately felt at ease – and felt confident in my receiving expert medical care. Staff was great, too. Walked away, very impressed w. the overall experience. HIGHLY recommend Dr. Haigentz...

Never felt more cared about and educated!!

The first time we met Dr Haigentz , he seemed to be knowledgeable in his field and was okay to talk to , maybe because I acknowledged I read so much about him and saw his picture in the magazine. The next time my sister took my mother back who is 76 years old with lung cancer and on oxygen 24/7, with some memory loss was a different story, he was nasty. I heard from others this seemed out of character for him but none the less happened and a bad experience that my mother encountered. Mr Haigentz was very condescending to my mother. He started by asking in a demanding way "what she was there for" He was the one who told her to make a follow up appointment after her radiation treatments. I was there for that. He made her feel stupid for not knowing being able to answer so quickly because she thought he knew why she was there and was confused by the question. At the end it was a waste of a trip for her since he didn't do anything but make her feel bad and schedule yet another appointment… again. Is this just for money? or what? this appointment is not going to happen, it will be cancelled and she has to find another oncologist. She is timid and just follows instructions. I would have personally asked at that time again why you want to see me again if you didn't want to see me this ? will it be the same. But again my mom is elderly , scared and listens to what the Dr's. say. Also my mother lost weight he said and he yelled at her about that. She was not starving herself, just said had a loss of appetite. She is on medication and had radiation, maybe it was that and it was not substantial , it was like 7 lbs in a few months and is not under weight by all means. This was no reason to yell when she actually thought that it was good news because she has pre diabetes and is told by other Dr's to lose weight.. Mom left the office feeling scolded , confused more than ever and uncomfortable to ask any questions to him as he kept saying im a cancer doctor not your primary, ect. again it was his tone, not in a nice way but making her feel stupid. He should know as a Dr that some people do not understand what each Dr 's role is when your seeing him as your cancer dr, and also have a cardiologist, pulmonologists, primary, radiologist cancer dr, surgeon cancer dr and many more. It does get confusing for anyone, so she asked a question, just answer it nicely. People dealing with cancer are scared. He is also dealing with elderly and forgetful people with their lives that have been turned around. He needs to speak nicely and not make them cry and feel stupid. Not to mention now she said she will not longer seek treatment after this , especially if it means going back to see him. That's sad. But there is nice some nice other Dr's like her radiologist oncologist that may help her in still seeking medical treatment because they were kind and caring, so lets hope for that.
