“I became a patient of the Melanoma and Pigmented Lesion Clinic at Mass General last year when, at age 32, I was diagnosed with acral melanoma. At my first appointment, Drs. Arthur Sober and James Cusack met with me to discuss my care. What struck me was their genuine concern for me as a patient. The clinic waiting area was busy that day, yet they made me feel like I was their only patient. I left with the confidence that I was in expert medical care and also that I was being cared for as an individual.
With each subsequent phone call and appointment, this team — including nurse practitioner Krista Rubin and melanoma coordinator Brie Trefrey — has continued to amaze me with its level of support and concern for my well-being. I am extremely grateful to have the Melanoma Center and Pigmented Lesion Center team behind me as I face life-long monitoring of my disease.”
