Dr. Li and the Oncology department have become major medical providers as a result of my having a kidney removed due to cancer and also prostate cancer. During a major bronchical problem that I had last summer they were quick to provide service and recommendations for treatment when it appeared that it might be lung cancer. Fortunately, it was not cancer related. However, it resulted in 11 days of hospitaliazation and while the recovery was long. I feel fine and am back to many of my old activities.

Providence Patient
This is the best care I have ever received in any hospital or doctor. From admission, Dr Li helped me during the most stressful time of my life, getting a new diagnosis of cancer and finding a treatment plan. His calm manner helped me accept the diagnosis and guide me thru finding a treatment. I got emergency surgery, and tests to find the kind of cancer I had, and a treatment plan for me. I was his patient right thru discharge and getting into his clinic seemlessly. I have never had such a seemless transfer from admission to discharge. As a former nurse who worked at Mission Hospital, your care is even better than before. I am truly blessed to have Dr Li for my doctor..He took my fear away and gave me the strength to get well, as he Is.
