She should go back to the horse farm. She wanted to remove my lung so I went to MSK in NYC and they removed only 10%. I think she is to quick to cut.

I was her patient almost 3 yrs ago. Had 1/3 of my right lung removed. A couple of her staff, need some one on one training. I like Dr. Gibson and I think she did a good job on me. 3 yrs and still alive.

Dr. Gibson is awesome in every way. She is precise, caring and does not "sugar coat" any procedure that will be involved. Dr. Gibson has given me nothing but the best care involved in my lung cancer treatment and surgery. I recommend her highly for medical care.
