Dr. Sukumar Ethirajan, MD

Doctor is good, but the helpers need to be removed from the practice. There was one, Laurie, who was very slow and didn't know anything. Haven't seen her for a long time, so maybe she is gone. New ones come and go, which doesn't say very much about the practice.

Takes the time YOU need at appt. for your questions as well. treats you as a whole person, very empathetic

Listens to patient's concerns; shares options for treatment and encourages patient's involvement in decisions.

Excellent physician. He plots trends of test reports. Easy to understand and explains issues in great detail.

Dr. Ethirajan is a true professional of oncology. I would refer him to anyone in a heartbeat! He looks out for the patient's best interest - that is what counts.

Extremely thorough and knowledgeable. Terrific bedside manner with patients. I have friends who swear by him and my experience with him supports that opinion 1000%.

He seems very busy and comes across like he has too many patients to see. He was not prepared. He sat and read my file for the first time while I sat there waiting. He was also late and rushed through our visit. Afterwards, I was surprised to see him in his office on his computer eating snacks.

Wonderful bedside manner, very compassionate. He never walks away until he has answered every question. Office and facilities (menorah) are beautiful.

Horrible, horrible bedside manner. This "doctor" was 1.5 hours late to my mother's appointment, had to be called out of a pharmaceutical rep luncheon by a nurse when a family member pointed out we hadn't been seen yet, did not know my mom's name, and obviously hadn't looked at her chart. He capped this less-than-impressive visit by saying, verbatim, that it didn't matter whether or not she treated her cancer, the outcome would be the same. His office has yet to comply with our request to send medical records to a different office. I cannot believe that anyone in a profession that claims to care for humans could be so cruel. I would not recommend this doctor to anyone.
