Patient Stories

Comments from our Patients

  • Before beginning treatment I was anxious and concerned about the procedure.  Everyone who worked with me was very kind, pleasant and eager to answer questions and explain procedures.  I truly appreciated each person. I was impressed at how organized and efficient yet individualized each patient's concerns and needs were met.

  • Bravo! I could not be any more impressed or pleased with the level of care, concern, courtesy, professionalism, kindness, conscientiousness, etc. that I received.

  • Thank you so much during my treatment! Your group handled everything so professionally and caring. Your team has developed a warm and personal relationship with me. I "joke around" a lot as you noticed, Thanks for letting me have fun too. We have some other treatments scheduled and the UCLA Doctors are great. I believe that it all out there in life. I really believe it and that is the way it should be.

  • I would like to express my appreciation and satisfaction with the service received at UCLA Radiation Oncology.  Every day, it was a great pleasure to be treated by such a professional team of workers.  They helped me go through the entire session smoothly.  Thank you very much.

  • I strongly feel that professionalism and dedication is very evident, especially the Radiation Therapists who were very meticulous and careful.  They made me feel at ease with the therapy and helped me get through the tedious process.  The Doctors were also very thorough and accessible.

  • The care I received at UCLA Radiation Oncology was very professional from the beginning to the end of my treatment, very warm supportable atmosphere throughout my treatment.  UCLA is a highly regarded hospital with the greatest respect I have for everyone that I come in contact with.

Letters from our Patients



November 2008

Dear Dr. Percy Lee,

I want to thank you and your team for my mother's radiation treatments.  Your whole group was so kind and considerate.

Just to let you know, yesterday after her treatment, she was really hungry.  She wanted to go to a restaurant for the first time since September.  We took her to Jerry's Deli where she ate more than she has in two and a half months.  She said that she was so happy because she finally finished something.

As we have told you, her pain relief has been remarkable.  I thank you greatly for that. No matter where this road takes us, she will have less pain and that is comforting to all involved.

To Whom it May Concern:

Since December of 2006 I've had the misfortune of needing radiation therapy 3 times, but I have been lucky enough to have treatments at UCLA.

Each time I've gone for treatment at UCLA I was treated with the utmost respect, and decency.  All of the doctors, nurses and technicians were kind and personable as well as professional and this allowed me to decrease any stress that I felt to a very large degree.  Appointments were scheduled and promptly met so that I never had to feel that I would be delayed.

I hope that if you need to receive treatments at UCLA you will find the experience as good as mine.  It's not something that anyone of us wants to go through but if we must then we should be glad that we have the facility to turn to.

Ken M.
