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.

The best oncologist!
Dr Cross has been my oncologist for a little over four years now. He is very thorough and knowledgeable. He and his staff bedside manner is excellent. I never feel rushed or unheard. Every concern I have Dr Cross and his staff address it with ordering more lab work or diagnostic tests. They follow up with tele health calls to ensure that I am aware of results and to answer any questions that I may have. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an oncologist.

Dr Cross was my oncologist more than a decade ago when I was recovering from a series of surgeries to remove melanomas that had metastasized. I have had no symptoms for the last ten plus years, but I wanted to reestablish our relationship. A little to my surprise, he remembered my case. I am 80 years old and requested a PET scan to either discover a hidden problem or to relieve any concerns that the disease had returned. After a short, but thorough, discussion and evaluation, he agreed that the scan would be a good idea. We now have a plan for my future that is very comforting...for me and for my wife. I heartily endorse Dr Cross.

Knowledgeable Provider
I am of course bias as he saved my life. When I showed up at Norfolk General having been just told I probably have Cancer from another emergency room, I was terrified. Dr. Cross and his team got to work on me right away and made me feel I had a chance. He never gave me false hope but always let me know his team would do everything to get me through this. I'm still here in remission 15 months later. That's more time with my kids and grandkids. I will continue to be extremely grateful for hopefully a long time!

Non-Hoskins Lymphoma treatment expectations
He explained my condition well and answered my questions thoroughly. My treatment was quite a project, and he managed it well. He had access to my PCP, dentist, and endodontists who always conferred with him regarding other conditions and recommended treatments. He treated me with respect. He and his staff were through.I had multiple chemical therapy treatments for my non-Hoskins Lymphoma. The ladies that administered the infusions were very kind and always made me comfortable. Their quality control of the infused medications is impeccable. Always back checking each other.Quality control is exercised throughout the Virginia Oncology Associates facility. It starts when you check in. I strongly recommend Dr. Cross. He and his staff helped me and my family throughout my treatment. I am grateful for his attention to detail, and the quality of his care.

Above & Beyond
I saw Dr. Cross in consultation for a lab result obtained by my primary care physician. He had reviewed the labs and my medical record before my arrival, listened attentively to my story, examined me, and ordered an additional test. He promptly called me himself with the test result. With his considerable knowledge and the time he spent with me he addressed all of my concerns.

Some years ago Dr. Cross saw something in my blood report that no one else brought to my attention. As a result of that he has been treating me for a number of years. I hold him and his staff to the highest standards. They are a team that I would highly recommend to anyone.
