I first saw Dr. West over 32 years ago when I was still very young and discovered I had cervical cancer. Dr. West was the most caring and understanding Dr I have ever met. I very quietly shed a tear or two, and he gave me a hug, which made all a little bearable. I never forgot that. He has the best "bedside" manner, which you don't find anymore. Sometimes it's the smallest things that make a huge impact.

I am truly blessed to have Doctor West and his chemo nurses taking care of me. From my surgery through all the follow up care, I have received professional yet warm care from all his staff. Dr West has such a calming effect on me as we fight my cancer. I am confident that I am receiving the best care available.

I believe that Dr. West is the kindest, most professional & skilled doctor that I have. His bedside manner is excellent. One never feels uncomfortable during an examination. Dr. West chats with his patients about other topics during the exam which has a calming effect.

Another doctor recommended Dr. West when it appeared that I had ovarian cancer. He said that if it was his wife, he would want her to go to Dr. West. Dr. West is not only an extremely good doctor and skilled surgeon, but he is also kind and supportive to his patients. I had a mastectomy when I was 29 for breast cancer. 38 years later, I faced ovarian cancer. Dr. West guided me through the ovarian cancer, and 3 years later, I am again cancer free. He's approachable, kind, and he uses his sense of humor at the right times. He is the kind of doctor you would want during a very difficult time. And, he's a snappy dresser...
