I was a patient at Fox Chase Cancer Hospital for a short period of time. During a routine test at a local x-ray facility, the radiologist noticed a rather large cyst on my left kidney. My local doctor continued to monitor it and it continued to grow and it eventually became as large as the kidney itself!. She referred me to Dr. Robert Uzzo and Dr Uzzo and I agreed to have it removed. Dr. Uzzo and his staff were the best! They were knowlegable, compassionate, and caring. Dr. Uzzo took plenty of time to explain everything about my condition to me as well as the risks involved with surgery. Once in surgery, it was found that there were actually three cysts. Dr. Uzzo removed them laproscopically. After the surgery, Dr Uzzo even took the time to draw a picture for my husband of what he found once he got in there.The good news was that there were no cancer cells, thank God! During my recovery the nurses and Debbie my CNA were wonderful to me. It's unbelievable how nice everyone is. This is definitely the place to go when you are facing a serious illness like cancer. They are all on top of their game and strive for excellence.
