Dr Fehniger, Shannon and Kate are outstanding! This entire ovarian cancer journey would have been impossible without their care, kindness and genuine concern. I truly appreciate them and am thankful that I was able to have them as my care team. Thank you ladies!

I had to wait 30 minutes in the exam room before dr. Fehniger came in. She did apologize for making me wait. The exam Was very confusing to me as In the middle of It she asked me if I could come back In 2 months, as she had felt a lump. Scar Tissue was discussed but she didn't give me a reason why she wanted me to come back so soon. There really wasn't any discussion on treatment either. I was Stunned because when a cancer survivor Hears lump, It's fast forward to anxiety. I have had stellar cancer care from Dr. Wysham and all the doctors that filled In until Dr. Fehniger came. I was double frustrated with I opened My Health, hoping I would be able to get clarity on just what the visit summary would read. Well that was no help because there was nothing on what the exam showed or treatment only my weight and height. It didn't mention the pap smear was done either. The My Health portal has always been very helpful. This appointment was the first time I had seen Dr. Fehniger. I am going to call her office tomorrow afternoon and try to get an answer as to why she wants me back in 2 months. I walked out of the appointment thinking "what just happened " usually when I leave the appointments I have clarity as to my health status, but not this time. Asked me if I could come back in 2 months, after she found a lump behind my vulva surgery I was caught off guard. The Topic of scare tissue came up,but never a positive answer from her when I asked her what it was. I left the appointment Confused and anxious. I have always had outstanding care from the doctors that took over after Dr. Wysham left, so Hopefully you can understand my confusion when dr. Fenhiger didn't explain to me why she wanted me to come back In two months. I was hoping that I could get some clarity from my health about the visit summary, but that did not have any Information on it about the exam, not even that a pap smear had been done. Who ever did the entry of my visit, sure didn't let me know anything about my visit, other than my weight and height The my health portal is a really good way of communicating what the appointment was about and the results. I am truly Disappointed and anxious about my experience with Dr. Fehniger. Actually this is the first time ever I had seen her or an Exam. I am hoping that I can her office tomorrow to get clarification why she wants me back in 2 months and how I can find out what this lump is. I do want you To know that I have had stellar cancer Doctors through legacy and hopefully I will going forward.

Having difficulty gettin in touch with the Oncology nurses' station at Good Sam now that I have been discharged. The main operator will NOT answer the phone disconnects after about 7 rings. Not pleased.NO meds were sent home with me. By the time I got home, it was too late to get to the pharmacy and now it is closed until after Christmas. NO pain meds, NO blood clot meds, NOTHING! This is a complete over-site by the oncology team and borders on malpractice.
