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.

Satisfied Patient
I began seeing Dr Negrea in 2023 after being diagnosed with chronic leukemia. I do believe that Dr Negrea is the most skilled hematology oncologist in the Savannah area. Under his direction my leukemia is now well controlled and treated and I have been able to, for the most part, resume a normal life. I am very grateful to have him as a physician and I highly recommend him.'

Good Doctor but Inflexible
My appointment was very early in the day. Wait time improved to an hour. As always, Dr. Negrea was professional and caring.

Phlebotomy Patient
Phlebotomist and Dr Negrea is always courteous and professional. He takes the time to make you understand your treatment plan. Scheduling and communication with staff is often chaotic.

Wait Time
The wait time was totally too long. I was there a total of 3 hours. I spent 20 minutes of that time with the doctor and another 15 minutes getting my blood drown. My time with Dr was well spent. He explained what my treatment was going to be moving forward and I felt he understood my needs.

Absolutely amazing
Needless to say I was very nervous. He came in and I immediately felt at ease. He was patient with me and my family asking questions. He went into detail about my condition. He also was honest about my treatment options.

Rare Gem
Dr. Negrea is intelligent, compassionate and thorough. His kindness could be felt by both me and my husband as soon as he entered the room. He was both humble and competent. He has renewed my hope that there might actually still be good doctors in this country. He is definitely one in a million.

The absolutely the best oncologist in Savannah!
Dr. Negrea is the most caring and compassionate physician who genuinely shows concern about his patients. He listens to you and is always willing to share his vast knowledge with you. The most remarkable experience is that Dr. Negrea still sees me every six months and it has been 16 years since I was diagnosed. This truly demonstrates the care I receive from this outstanding physician. I highly recommend him to all my friends. I credit him along with my faith in God to my life.

Dr. -1, NP -2, wait time 3 hours & 45 minutes
Dr. told me nothing more than my surgeon said because the office is too busy to book appointments, so I had to see surgeon first. Horrid wait times. Televisits would be more efficient for most follow-up appointments. If this practice would like to improve some of its issues contact me at the number on my file. I'm a retired college professor who has extensive experience teaching communication skills. Communication takes places before you say your first word.
