    Dr Green went through prostate cancer with my husband about four years ago, we were told that we were considered new patients and would have to see someone else Dr Greene could not see us. When Dr Greene walked through the door, my husbands face absolutely lit up, and I watched the fear and anxiety, leave his face for the first time in several weeks. Kudos to staff and Dr Greene for making my husband feel so special that Dr Greene, who we were told could not see {patient name removed} because of being a new patient took the time and came and helped him. Yay Dr Greene .

    The doctor shook my hand right away and introduced himself. I was given thorough explanations to help me make informed decisions regarding my care. The doctor helped guide my decision while giving me authority to exercise full autonomy. I felt respected and cared for! Dr. Greene shook my hand before he left and gave me confidence that my experience was competent, thorough and most importantly I had meaningful control in this process to choose the course of action.
