Good evening. I would just simply like to say that the staff at MD Anderson Invori's, they're very nice, very kind, and very patient. And I think that Dr. Hussein is a wonderful doctor. I just feel sometimes that I have to be a little faster with my answers and a little bit more precise with what he's asking me and come up with an answer or a comment a little bit faster than what I did. But all in all, I do believe he's a great doctor. He took care of me and all of my numbers and records seem to be much better, which means he knew what he was doing and him and Dr. Lopez have me on the right track. Thank you very much. You have a good evening and a good holiday.

I just would like to share kudos for the entire staff. From the minute I walked to the reception area to see where I was to sign in to the nurses, to the technician, and especially to the doctors. Dr. Hussain and his followers are to be commended. I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I was afraid. His energy was positive, he showed sympathy, empathy, all the above. He answered the questions. He didn't make me feel intimidated. He didn't belittle me. He gave me the utmost respect. And I have never in all my 75 years met with a staff as much as I have with the staff of Dr. Loveland Jones, Dr. Same, the whole team. I'm just fortunate, blessed, and grateful to have them. I thank you for the opportunity that I could share this.

It was a very informative appointment. Dr Hussain was very kind and took a lot of time explaining to me about the therapy and the medication that was being recommended. I like the fact that he didn't try to convince me to use medication. The survey did not enable me to accurately answer some of the questions because I only had one appointment with Dr Hussain and do not expect that I will need any follow-up appointments. I'm not sure if my answers accurately reflected that.
