I feel that City of Hope hires only the best staff who care about the patients, which is rare to other facilities. As a cancer patient, I understand the importance in getting the right treatment from a facility that really takes the time to understand my case and help me through my journey. I will always recommend and push others who are seeking cancer treatment to transfer to the City of Hope campus to get the best treatment. My team at City of Hope saved my life. - Verified patient

City Of Hope has come along ways since my dad had treatment back in [...]. Just in the last couple of weeks, I told two of my friends that are dealing with cancer. Look into the City Of Hope because the first diagnosis from my mothers medical group was not good, but the City Of Hope has given us a greater outlook on life ahead. - Verified patient
