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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Islas became my Dr when it was discovered that I had myelo fibrosis and would need a bone marrow transplant. He has cared for me for the last 15 yrs. He walked us carefully through the transplant. Kind and understanding, but also very straight forward which I wanted. It was explained that I should have my affairs in order prior to the transplant. The odds were not in my favor. Yet I am still here and healthy thanks to Dr Islas and OHC. I trust him with my health

Fine gentleman, finer oncologist
Dr Islas has kept me free from (and in generally good health despite) lymphoma/lymphoma-related tumors after three recurrences over eight years, with Velcade being the most recent (quite effective) weapon of choice, allowing me to get to the point of no longer requiring treatment. His genial personality enables him to tell it like it is, especially if it's not particularly good news; in my case, almost always with encouragement such as "you're a sick well man", meaning, "Yes, you do have a blood cancer with tumors, but you're otherwise healthy enough to beat it." So far, despite my doubts of that sentiment, he's been correct.

Very thorough and personable!
As the spouse of a patient, I really appreciate how thorough Dr Islas is, and his bedside manner is terrific. He takes time to really get to know the patient and adjust treatments accordingly. We are so fortunate to have found OHC. We felt like part of a big family while undergoing BMT. So important to humanize care during cancer treatment!

Works in a team environment for patient coverage
When you get care from Dr. Islas, you don't just get his expertise but the combined experience from a team with hundreds of years of knowledge and experience. The care from Dr. Islas and his team is top notch and they are always willing to explain procedures and processes in multiple ways to make sure everyone is on the same page. Dr. Islas recognizes that he has a medical role but never forgets the role he plays in managing the personal side with patients. He is empathetic when treatments can be tough.

Dr Isals-Ohlmayer is a very straightforward doctor, who has a real life and communicates on a real level. He also has a sense of humor, which I think indicates an above average mind.

Very attentive to patient needs and truly cares about you as a person. I have never felt rushed and he always gives you ample time for questions or just conversation which I feel is very important for a comfortable patient/doctor relationship. All of this contributes to quality care.
