Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Outstanding Customer Service
Dr. Fitch and his entire staff, Technicians & Admirative, provide outstanding customer service. I would highly recommend Dr. Fitch and his team.

Amazing results. Doesn't overpromise.
Dr. Fitch is a very caring and supportive doctor who knows his stuff. Using a 3-D radiology approach, and he fried the nerve ends abutting my groin tumor. I was in a wheelchair and begging for someone to put me down when I arrived. Two months later I walked in unassisted completely pain free.

Trustful and Compassionate
Dr. Fitch is extraordinary. He is compassionate and genuine & this is something evident in the way he leads his staff as well. His entire team helped me through the most difficult time in my life, my breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. Weeks of daily radiation were tolerable only because I knew I had a team of respectful, kind and knowledgeable professionals to help me through. I trust Dr. Fitch and his team wholeheartedly.

Not only did Dr Fitch treat me but my husband. He is the kindest and most intelligent person. I trusted him for me and my husband treatment. No one is better. He has a staff that is the same way as he is. He is a great doctor.

I had a excellent experience with all staff & Dr.
After 6 and a half weeks of radiation, I must say I was impressed by the staff compassion, understanding, diligence, and overall professionalism. Dr. Fitch sets the tone making an experience of anxiety into somethings so much more less stressful. Thank you for taking such good care of me!

Repeat Patient of Dr Fitch’s. Highly recommend!
Dr Fitch provided outstanding care for me in 2009 when I was diagnosed with colon cancer. When I was diagnosed now with a different kind of cancer, I only wanted Dr Fitch again. He is very compassionate, tells you straight up what to expect during radiation, and maintains communication with you each week. Knowing he was overseeing my care this time too, made the whole experience less scary.

A caring and supportive doctor
Lovely new office which welcomes the patient with friendly staff. Cold juices and water bottles in waiting room, a large screen with calming panoramic views of picturesque locations around the world. York peppermint patties to reward patients on the way out. Well run office with most appointments taking around 20 minutes. Dr. Fitch listens attentively and answers all questions thoroughly. Promptly returns calls if a problem arises and even has been known to give a reassuring hug at the close of an appointment. Can’t imagine a better experience considering the stressful situation of needing radiation treatment.

Fine physician, wonderful practice
I recently underwent radiation treatments for prostrate cancer and Dr. Fitch was everything you could hope for in an oncology specialist. His description of the process and what side effects I could experience was spot on and the practice itself is beautiful and state of the art. If you live in this area, he is your best bet for effective and successful care.

Informative, Therapeutic Listener
I help my Uncle with his medical care, and took him to his first visit with Dr Fitch. Dr Fitch validated my Uncles concerns, and encouraged both the patient and family members to ask questions. No question was too small. The visit was informative, and gave my Uncle a good picture of what to expect.

Dr Fitch and his staff made a hard medical issue manageable. They were kind and attentive always asking me how I was doing. They daily attended to my medical needs. Their precision was very reassuring. There was no guess work while administering my treatments. The facility was new and clean. I would recommend Dr. Fitch to anyone in need of radiation.

Everyone in the office is professional and friendly. Appointment times are kept, but they are very willing to be flexible if something comes up. Dr. Dwight Fitch takes the time to explain every detail and is very caring. The technicians are also very caring, friendly, and just plain wonderful. They were very gentle with my husband and did a perfect job.

Dr Fitch was recommended to me by my primary care doc after my cancer diagnosis. So pleased with the recommend. He took his time during our first consult and answered all my questions, and then was very caring during my 6 weeks of treatment. Hopefully, I’ll not require any further treatment, but if I do, I’m fully comfortable with being under his care.
