Absolutely amazing. I'm really grateful for the great care that the BC Cancer agency provides. The doctors, nurses, and all the staff are really kind and knowledgeable. Couldn't be treating my cancer in a better place.
~ Ana Laura.
I cannot share my gratitude enough for the oncologists and nurses who work here. It feels like a second home at this point and that's because of how kind all the staff are, and how much effort they put in to make you comfortable. I never have to wait long if at all for my chemo appointments. Views are nice from most of the chemo rooms as well (6th floor). Each nurse is different and some are gentler and more attentive than others, needless to say. The blood work lab usually has a very short wait time and nurses are usually gentle. Blood transfusions have always been pleasant. The elevators can be very slow sometimes, but that's the only complaint I can think of. Thank you thank you thank you!
