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.

Excellent customer service. Excellent team of providers who answer all questions in an unhurried manner. Well scheduled personalized treatment plans. Great nurses and techs. Phlebotomist who greet all with a hopeful smile, humor or genuine care. Top facility well contained with staff in different departments such as Financial assistance. Chemo and radiation with professional staff training info. Wig and cookbook items free to patients. The chemo infusion room is superb with about 35 pore and caregivers while staff is well staffed with even an oversight person double checking chemo meds for each patient. While infusion takes about three hours there are snacks for clients while taking their treatment. A very busy place daily but everyone is schedule who come from even afar. Quite impression. Sort of a cancer Mayo Clinic in Columbia , Mo. cannot say enough about speed. Professionalism and staff knowledge. Thank you thank you Raymond J Molina & sis Carmen Fast

Very knowledgeable doctor
I was impressed with the doctor's knowledge of wanting to know how this may have occurred due to genetics. How he was going to send the lump to California to see what type of cancer. How I would have to do radiation over chemotherapy due to my Multiple Sclerosis. He made me feel more comfortable starting this new journey.

An answered prayer!
Dr. Tungesvik and Nurse Jennifer are truly exceptional people. I absolutely loved by medical oncology team. Dr. Tungesvik prayed with me at my request. He answered questions—and prayers. Nurse Jennifer was so patient and calm. They did everything to make me feel well (physically, mentally, and emotionally) at every point. In an otherwise awful time of my life, the people I met at Missouri Cancer Associates—infusion nurses too—were such a blessing.
