I think Dr. Ajkay is a great surgeon. I had no trouble with him. But his team is not consistent & followup has been dropped multiple times over. As a patient in this group, I have not felt seen or heard or helped beyond the actual surgery. I am changing to a Baptist Health group. I am quite disappointed, because I have been to the Brown Cancer Center on many occasions with 3 different individuals during their cancer journey for excellent care. I have not received the same. I am a best case scenario with stage one cancer & I had a double mastectomy. I understand, vividly, that others are in much dire straits, but I have not been helped through this cancer journey I am on.

I came to this visit extremely anxious as I had recently been told I have a breast mass & due to two different scans being positive for this mass I needed to be seen by a surgical oncologist. It took months to see this provider. They stated there was nothing sooner. Upon the visit w/ this provider I didn't not speak much. He spoke to me in a way he expected most to understand. While thoroughly explaining to me what each report prior to this visit said, never allowed me to speak to freely. The same reports he read to me are the ones that sent me there. I had heard these results many times so to spend 85% of this visit on reading them to me was a waist of time. He would have received better information from the patient to use for his recommendation post visit if he would have just listened. You spend months waiting to see this type of provider with a million concerns going through your mind and to be gaslit at the visit just makes a person feel belittled or inadequate. He said I could see him PRN. I will be selected someone else if ever needed in the future.

My initial visit was scheduled for two weeks earlier but was in hospital. Staff got me in to see the Dr within 2 weeks. Dr was thorough in explaining their role as surgeon, the role of the medical oncologist and the radiation oncologist. He took time and listened to my and my daughter's questions. Thank you to Dr Ajkay!

Dr Aikay, is one of the finest Drs. Anyone could have or meet. He takes all the time needed to make sure a patient understands what surgery he'll perform and all the details about it and any results he may have at hand. I've never had a Dr take so much time in discussing my procedure and ask me if I understand and do I have any questions. He's the best in my eyes and my family. Excellent surgeon, the incisions he makes are not noticable at all. Really appreciate Dr Aikay and his associates. This was the scariest time in my life concerning my health and he made things much easier.
