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.

Exceptional Care
I have been in remission for over 10 years, and I couldn't be more grateful to Dr. Kelly May for her exceptional care. After transferring from Milwaukee to Atlanta, I have seen Dr. May for my yearly maintenance checkups ever since. She is incredibly personable, compassionate, and always makes me feel like I’m more than just a patient. Her bedside manners are impeccable, and she takes the time to listen and address all of my concerns. I trust her completely with my care and highly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch cancer treatment and follow-up care.

Excellent Care
From the moment I checked in, I felt 'cared' for at the Cancer Care Center. Excellent service by every single person! Dr. May was so personable and went through my records carefully explaining in great detail all the questions I had for her. Between my husband and I, we were extremely satisfied with her answers. I know we will be glad that I have a very capable physician giving me excellent care from now into the future. The very friendly and helpful medical office staff is a big plus!

I was a nervous wreck walking into the office. I felt like I was going to pass out. Dr. May and her staff are inviting, personable and knowledgeable. Dr. May took time with me to go over my labs and gave me a clear understanding of my numbers. I really appreciate Dr. May and her staff for putting my mind at ease.
