Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Long wait times in waiting room for seeing the physician; however, she is spot on with answers to all my questions - very thorough.

Very Impressed
We switched to Dr. Veliz from a different provider at FL Cancer Specialists. We were very happy with our first appointment and her level of caring & understanding. She was empathetic and genuinely concerned for my husband's well being. So excited to move forward with Dr. Veliz

She was so sweet and very attentive at what was going on. She gave me a lot of good tips and was able to make my infusions the next week.

Glad they are on my team

Being diagnosed with cancer was like suddenly waking up in a foreign country where I didn’t know the language & couldn’t understand the culture. I soon realized I would need people on my team to help me through this journey. I’m glad Dr Veliz & her associates are on my team. Yes, I would recommend.

Thorough and Caring
I am a new patient but they fit me in on the same day I called with an issue. All staff were professional, thorough, friendly, and caring. They took the time to go through lengthy medical records, asked many questions, and listened to my concerns. A follow-up plan was developed. It was a very positive experience.

The front staff was very awesome. The doctor was very awesome. Well, he was the nurse practitioner. The lady in the lab was very nice. I saw her about five times. I like the office. Nice and close to my residence. Everyone there is very professional. Even people in billing are very professional. Everyone is professional in the buildings and the back rooms and I like going to the office. I would recommend to everybody.

I`ve been going to Florida Cancer Specialists since I was diagnosed in 2019 and I`ve always had great care. Warm people and I think they are very up to date on everything with cancer and treatment. Also, my husband was a patient, as well.
