I am a cancer patiant waiting for chemotherapy treatment. My oncology surgeon recomended chemo first in an attempt to reduce the cancer size before surgery, but also told me the treatment might affect my future fertility. And as my breast cancer cells have hormone receptors, she wasn't sure it would be safe for me to try the fertility treatment before I had the chemotherapy. However, Dr. Garima told the surgeon and me that it will not affect the cancer if they use a medicine that will reduce the hormones to a normal rate. That was really reassuring and I was glad I talked to Dr. Garima before I made my dissision not to proceed in the fertility treatment in fear of my cancer growth. She explained very thoroughly and even took time out of her schedule to see me after an appointment booking mishap. I felt like I was looked after really well by her and all the other nurses. Now I have an option however the chemo may affect me and I thank her for that.
