Patient Comments
In spite if needing a bilateral mastectomy, I feel Dr Porpiglia is extremely skilled in her profession. Her communication skills and empathy are astounding. She has taken all of the time necessary to explain and/or clarify every single detail and attended to as ny concerns or questions I've posed. I would highly recommend her services moving forward.
I am just so thankful I found Fox Chase 11 years ago. From [...] and now Dr. Porpiglia I have been blessed. Any nurses or people that have tested me have been caring and loving. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I have had two types of cancer and Fox Chase would be the only place for me.
Wonderful experience with Dr. Porpiglia and the team. She was very knowledgeable and helped me to navigate next steps.
I recommend Temple Health to anyone having a problem. I feel Dr Porpiglia is the best. The 2 and a half hour drive from [...] is worth every inch.
My physician is very professional and caring of my cancer health issues and provides the time I need with questions I have.
