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.

Dr. Kantor and his staff cared for me during cancer and chemo. Very caring, attentive and concerned about all my issues. Still see Dr. Kantor, I’m two years cancer free in July 2021. So glad I went to him for my treatment. Highly recommend him.

First off Id like to know if this dr ever tested me for lyme or bartonella, because they can lead to blood cancers. Secondly I feel the need to warn others about the horrible neglect I recieved from this dr when my Hodgkin's was relapsing (something linked to bartonella). He lectured me in an appointment about my bill/debt, when I was there to discuss the return of unusual symptoms. He said I was fine, I didnt need a PET scan, that I had the most curable cancer, he refused to check my lymph nodes and refused to put a stethoscope on me. This was when my ptsd with drs started because I realized what a farce drs like this are. I was balling at that appointment!!!! It was horroble! A couple weeks later while trying to get into another cancer center a lump appeared. It was back, and my intuition was correct. This dr could have cared less. He us not working to better his patients, he is working to pad his pocketbook. I have finally been diagnosed with lyme, am awaiting bartonella tests

Waited 45 min to see the doctor and when he finally arrived he had no idea about my chart. He was recommended to me by a previous patient but I think that was before he joined National Jewish. I have seen him for almost a year now and I feel very unimportant to him and always have.

Waited over an hour in exam room. Doctor is very arrogant ! I had a DVT blood clot a few months prior to seeing this doctor. He ordered wrong blood tests. Don't go to him !

Dr. Kantor is an extraordinary oncologist and an extraordinary person. My dad had terminal lung cancer. He made every effort he could to provide or suggest the most promising treatments for him. He truly cared about his patients and provided the best care within his capability, even though sometime he had to work after hours or on weekends. Thanks for all your support, Dr. Kantor, – medical and emotional.

Dr. Kantor is professional, kind, straightforward, knowledgeable and current on the latest available treatments. I've had a rare form of leukemia and Dr. Kantor keeps apprised of the details. He truly care about his patients and our overall health. I travel across the country to see him. As an excellent oncologist he cannot be replaced. I trust him with my life.
