Dr. Ravin Ratan is amazing and cares about his patients. My anxiety of having a rare cancer (Pleomorphic Liposarcoma ) is not as fearful. I am in the best hands and MD Anderson is the best in the world for a reason. I am so very grateful for the Sarcoma Center and to live in the great state of Texas. Miracles happen every day at MD Anderson in making cancer history.

I was referred to Dr. Ratan by my sarcoma surgeon. I feel very fortunate to have him on my team. He has been thoughtful, informative, respectful and truly concerned with my well-being. I will be grateful to him and his staff for the rest of my life.

Although we went to see Dr. Ratan at a sad time in our lives, he went above and beyond. He contacted us with results on weekend and was always very receptive to our questions. He really showed that he cared.

Very arrogant. Talks down to you. Unwilling to help coordinate with you if you are not from Texas. Very disappointing.
