I wholeheartedly recommend Barbara Abruzzo RN for anyone seeking medical advice, patient advocacy or support from an elite healthcare professional with years of experience & expertise. In short, my fathers cancer has been responsive (shrinking) thanks to the cancer treatment Barbara helped us find; while 3 surgeries over 3 years & 2 rounds of chemo were not effective. Barbara’s research & recommendation methodology is thorough, clear & consistent. I felt confident that with Barbara we had a solid opportunity to consider every possible level of treatment available. Barbara was receptive to our family’s boundaries when it came to treatment locations & styles. Barbara was also flexible as it took a lot of effort & time for my family to align on responses and updates. Personally, I really enjoyed Barbara’s straightforward, professional & genuine “bedside manner.” Regarding anything medical, my father is often difficult, reactive, defensive and stubborn. Barbara was able to handle his sarcasm & resistance with laughter & ease for which I am very grateful.
