Your Doctor Means the
World to you.
Share your gratitude.
Your doctor is your caregiver, your confidant, and through challenging times — your hero.
They have seen you at your worst — suffering from an illness, injury, or facing a daunting medical diagnosis. They have seen you at your best — when you're healthy and ready to get back to what matters most in life.
National Doctors' Day on March 30th is our chance to let our doctors know how much we appreciate them. At UHealth — University of Miami Health System, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Miller School of Medicine, we celebrate all our physicians — their commitment, courage, and compassion.
IF YOU COULD TELL YOUR DOCTOR HOW MUCH THEY MEAN TO YOU, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?

"Thank you for the love and support I needed during one of the most desperate times in my life. You truly are my angel on earth and my biggest blessing."
"Not only were you my rock during a period of pain and uncertainty, but you also became the soldier who helped me fight when I didn't have the strength."
"You provided a path to beat cancer and preserved my ability to have a child. Now when I look at my daughter, I know I'm the luckiest man alive... for that, I'm forever grateful."
You always answer my questions and concerns, and I know I have posed many. But I have had no fear of radiation because you explained carefully the process, its ramifications short and long term, and the statistics to support its use. This appealed to the rational, scientific thinker in me, the warrior on the path to ecovery, and the artist creating new space in the future. Thank you for the inspiration.
Message to Lora S. Wang, M.D.
I appreciate that you listen, that we can speak "heart to heart". You have listened to mine literally and figuratively. It has always served me well and continues to do so under your care. I knew there could be heart-related repercussions while undergoing treatment for breast cancer and you ushered me through them with an ease that put me at ease, regardless of my "white coat hypertension" fluctuations. So I thank you once more, and deeply from my heart.
Message to Alex H. Velasquez, M.D.
I was referred to you by a dear friend and I bless her every day for her referral. When I came to you initially, it was simply for an annual checkup. I wanted to find a physician I could rely on, with whom I could make a lasting connection. And then I had an appointment with you. You took your time gathering my medical history, exploring previous diagnostic information, and establishing an ongoing plan and a series of tests to confirm/deny and fill in the gaps. One was the mammogram which exposed my breast cancer. And when I was advised of this result, I was also advised you already had set up the care team that has ushered me through this diagnosis and its subsequent treatments to this very day.. Plus you continued to oversee my other health concerns as well during this same time. Caring, involved, supportive...exactly what a fine doctor should be. So thank you again... I am beyond happy that I was referred to you.

Message to Laurence Sands, M.D., M.B.A
I did not start my cancer journey at Sylvester. My treatment was good, but the doctor was cold to my daughter-in-law, when she was diagnosed at age 29. With an excellent recommendation, we both switched to Sylvester, and Dr Calfa. She is beyond terrific. Her compassion, combined with her intense knowledge and empathy, make her a perfect oncologist. I would never go anywhere else and would certainly recommend Dr Calfa to anyone in need. That you Dr Calfa.... for being you.

So on National Doctors Day +1, I say "Thank You"

I just wanted to take this time to let you know how grateful I am that you treated Kenneth for 2 years. You know he lost his battle on March 10, but your care for him, and you attention to my questions, were beyond the call of duty. Not only did you communicate with me on a timely basis but with detailed answers; not just one or two sentences, but with three or four paragraphs at times. I cant say enough good things about you and your staff.

We first met last fall when I was referred to you with what turned out to be a recurrence of a debilitating disease I had been treated for many years ago. Your team and colleagues are amazing! You coordinated multiple tests that resulted in a diagnosis and treatment. Your team always made the process easy. I suspect it is hard for anyone who has not had an illness that impacts the quality of their lives to appreciate what this means. Its meaning starts with world-class care and it is defined by the kindness you and your team always express. This kindness is rare. Thank you for all you do!

I just want to tell Dr Martin that he was my angel. In 2011, he started to do all kind of tests to find cancer in my liver. At that particular moment, I felt that was the end of my life, but he explained to me the process and guided me trough the whole dilemma very easily. In fact, the end of this process was transplantation of my liver. He referred me to the Miami Transplant Institute where the team of professionals took care of me. Now I am living very happily with my new liver. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Dr. Paul Martin because you and your team saved my life

Thank you seven years ago for insisting that I check out that tremor in my face. Although we found a brain tumor and the journey has been a tricky one, I will never forget your part in my healing process and getting to where I am now. Your name comes up often when I mention how this all started and I just wanted to say thank you so much for being so gentle, so very caring, knowledgeable, thorough and kind in those first years when my family and I felt so lost at the first diagnosis of my tumor. God bless you always.

Message to Joseph Lamelas, M.D.
My whole life changed when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The first time I was diagnosed, I had a double nipple sparing mastectomy, which led to me having to get a latissimus flap. I was diagnosed again less than two years later, where I had to go through chemo, radiation, and a radical mastectomy. I was left looking very deformed and my self -confidence was nothing. My previous doctors told me that there was nothing they could do. Then I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Oeltjen, who would change my life forever. He was the most courteous person I have ever met and he treated me like I was a part of his family. He conducted two surgeries on me so far and I am so pleased with my results. He boosted my self-confidence to a point I thought it could never be again. To the best doctor in the world. If I could give you a trillion dollars I would, but what I can give you is my love, appreciation and my prayers. Thank you so much. You're stuck with me for life!
Message to John C. Oeltjen, M.D., Ph.D.

Message to Helena G. Hui-Chou, M.D.
I'm wholeheartedly grateful to you for saving my life. I have never smoked nor had I ever dealt with a smoker, so I was perplexed. As a result, after I was diagnosed, I was able to come in for consultation and pronto, you were able to perform my surgery to remove my cancer! Imagine, during the pandemic if I was unable to get surgery? That was definitely a higher power's intervention. Thank you for your expertise, your professionalism your sense of humor and your kindness.
Message to Dao M. Nguyen, M.D.
There are not enough words to thank Dr. Lekakis for all he has done for me and my family. Finding out I had stage 4 Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and would need a stem cell transplant was overwhelming, but Dr. Lekakis and his team were so kind and informative. He never made us feel rushed, answered all our questions thoroughly, and put me at ease to go ahead with the transplant that has kept me cancer free since 2014. I always felt like I received the best care with Dr. Lekakis and he genuinely cared. My wife and I just celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary and I doubt I would have made it to this milestone without him. Thank you, Dr. Lekakis, for what you did for me and selflessly do for others like me.

You are amazing at what you do, and I am lucky to be under your care.

Dr. Eric Mellon is the most caring, compassionate doctor that our family has ever encountered. Not only do I credit him for saving my father's life, Dr. Mellon has gone above and beyond our expectations. The doctor is always available to speak with us, and usually returns my emails within the hour. We have the utmost confidence in his expertise in many areas of my father's health. Our family relocated to Naples several years ago and it was never even a question if we would keep Dr. Mellon- four years and continuing. He deserves the highest recognition.

Message to Dido Franceschi, M.D.
I am always in praise and so thankful of Dr. Sargi. I will forever be thankful for, first, his God given skills, but then all of the other things that he has. His team members are so nice and it shows that they really do care for you, and I actually miss seeing them. His patience and time he spends with you. He never made me feel rushed and always listened to me and would answer all questions I had. Dr Sargi was a blessing and I was so lucky to meet him and have him as my surgeon. I always remembered a line he used to tell me when I would ask how long before we know if I am well again. His answer was "When your cured - your cured." So yes, I went thru 5 years of steady check-ups, but I took what Dr. Sargi said and just knew the moment after my surgery I knew I was cured! I love you Dr. Sargi - you are a very special person, and I was blessed the moment I walked into your office for my initial exam.
Message to Zoukaa B. Sargi, M.D., MPH
I met you on telehealth during the very early months of the pandemic. You were always so pleasant and cheerful to be around .It helped when I had to think about going through radiation. The entire month of May 2020 I spent with your team. I wanted to give a special shout out to the techs who give you a sense of normalcy while undergoing radiation. At first I was nervous. Could I get COVID-19 from going into the hospital? I came to realize I was in the safest place possible. Then once a week I got to see your smiling face, along with Carla, my nurse. I am glad to have you on my team.

Message to Joseph Rosenblatt, M.D.
Thank you so much for your kind and attentive care. You are the first doctor in almost a decade to sit down with me for more than 10-15 minutes and listen to my concerns, and talk me through ALL of my options. I cannot begin to describe how thankful I am to have found a physician who genuinely cares for their patients - even going so far as to send messages and call to check-in. I hope you know that your efforts are appreciated, and that I am grateful to have access to such great care! Thank you!

Message to Oriana Damas, M.D.
Early in 2020, I was diagnosed with a very aggressive lymphoma. The hospital I was in was not comfortable to give me treatment, so they referred me to Dr Lossos at U.M On March 16th of 2020, on my birthday, (It was a sign) I met Dr Lossos. He revealed to me what was going on with me and my diagnosis and told me that he had a treatment. He told me that if I was his brother, it would be the best treatment to take to have a chance. After a long treatment, (72 days in the hospital and 60 round of chemo), Dr Lossos told me that I was in remission! I want to thank you, Dr. Lossos, for what you have done for me, all the care you provided to me, all the support and everything, because of you I can go home to see my wife again and play with my little girl. Forver, I will be thankful to you, to your commitment to save lives and your research to fight cancer. You are one of the best thing that ever happen to me in my life.
