"Dr Shum is a very knowledgeable oncologist who spent an enormous amount of time explaining my cancer diagnosis to me in a very caring and understandable way. As daunting as this diagnosis was she was after all the appropriate tests able to start me on a treatment plan that I feel great about and look forward to a long future ahead. "
