Dr Wade is amazing.
August 19, 2025
Dr. Wade always makes me feel judged and unheard. She has a lack of empathy and concern and always makes me feel rushed. Having cancer is difficult enough and Dr. Wade makes my journey even more challenging. She doesn't address my concerns and appears aloof. When I ask for answers or clarification, she doesn't offer viable suggestions. Everything appears to be generic, stock answers. She often seems annoyed or disinterested in my thoughts. She lacks sensitivity which, to me, is very important in her role as an oncologist. I wish she cared for me and supported me but sadly I leave my appointments feeling disappointed and discouraged despite the fact that I am a positive and optimistic person. I feel that I have faced my diagnosis without the support of my oncologist. Dr. Wade is very cold.
