I started this conversation and yes, 5 years later I had Stage 4 recurrent cervical cancer. Had chemo and keytruda and within 3 sessions I was NED. Dr. Colon-otera and Mayo Oncology were outstanding! No email in my portal went over an hour in being answered; if I needed a referral to check on something, got in right away. Everything in oncology is precision controlled, follow upped, and even the physician called me a few times. I felt secure and cared for - the staff was incredible and they 250 chemo patients in a day. when our buzzer rings, they are right there. Can't say enough good things about oncology at Mayo. On downside was side effects of Keytruda so they had to take me off of it. Yes, I still live with those side effects, but I feel good and am a dedicated Mayoite from here on out! Gina
