I been under Dr Furman’s care since 2005. Every review is spot on. He is a brilliant doctor, very informative, and a great bedside manner to go along with all that knowledge. I travel from South Jersey til this day. I’ll actually be seeing him in a few weeks. I trust no other man when it comes to my health. Thank you Dr Furman for years of being such a great doctor to me.

Dr. Furman is a very thorough physician. I enjoy discussing the data and the disease 🦠 with him. Each time we meet I understand CLL a little bit better.

I have been under Dr. Furmans care for NHL since 2008. His knowledge, expertise, and compassion has saved my life on more than one occasion. No matter how busy, he always makes you feel like youre his only patient and has all the time in the world for you. I am lucky that he is my doctor. I would not have survived without him.

I have been seeing Dr. Furman for several years and highly recommend him as a doctor. He is caring, professional and always available. His PA is wonderful as well. I cant say enough about the Oncology Department at Weill Cornell.

On a personal level there is probably not a more empathetic physician than Ricard Furman. He is what we should all hope or perhaps expect to have as as a no rush and very patient advisor who takes the time to answer questions and offer information to those in the room with him - the ones who are facing the unknown.

When you’re faced with a situation that may result in your death, you need to find the right hospital and the right doctor. Dr. Furman and NY Pres meet and excede the requirements for survival.Dr. Furman is a renowned and respected oncologist who specializes in CLL. I’ve always felt a level of comfort and extreme confidence with Dr. Furman. We stay ahead of the curve with the many optioned that we are provided with Furman’s practice. His continuing education and participation in clinical trials allows him to offer many more options than most oncologists have to offer.There is no doubt I am still in this world due to his efforts and caring. I would follow him to any part of the world to be under his care. In my mind, there is no better a choice for one’s CLL care.Thank you, Dr. Furman for keeping me in this crazy world a little longer!

Dr. Furman saved my life. He has been kind, realistic, but most importantly, hopeful. He takes the time to listen and answer questions. He gets back to me usually within a day. He knows what he’s doing and he really cares. I’m very grateful to have him as my doctor.

Dr. Furman is a brilliant researcher of blood cancers. He listens, reviews all information provided electronically, asks more questions, makes a preliminary evaluation and then follows through to get more information and tests if necessary. He is an out-of-the-box thinker and spends the time and energy to look deeper into discrepancies and problems in diagnosis and treatments. He is the best!

The waiting room was properly organized for social distancing, and everyone was wearing masks. The staff drew my blood soon after I arrived, and my visit with Dr. Furman was, as usual, informative, and his examination was thorough. Thanks!

Dr FURMAN! The best doctor I’ve ever had! He’s the most caring, instructive and confidence building type of doctor! He taught me how to live WITH Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia and not let it overwhelm me. To go forward after being treated! The most patient man....! There is no one better than Dr FURMAN!

To say Dr Furman is tops in his field is obvious. What is not so obvious is his superb ability to communicate with the patient (me). Answers the questions no matter how inane they may appear to him. I feel lucky to have this oncologist guiding my care.

Review №38

My wife was treated for several years by Dr Furman.She had CLL and made regular visits for monitoring that condition. He and his staff were thorough and upbeat, letting her know that there would be ways to treat her condition if and when it should recur.What recurred was a more aggressive form of the disease which would not respond to simple infusions. She knew she would need chemotherapy, but Dr Furman postponed her treatment because the pandemic was in an acute phase and he wanted to avoid risk to her. Was that a wise decision? I don’t know, but I do know that the delay allowed for progression of the disease to her bone marrow; that ultimately killed her. During a significant period of that time, Dr Furman was away, though we were assured he was in contact with the hospital staff. Could her life have been saved by earlier treatment? I don’t know, but the question remains with me . My wife trusted him, but I feel he betrayed that trust.

Dr furman has been treating me for cll/SLL leukemia for the past five years dr furman exhibits all the characteristics you would want from any doctor especially one treating you for cancer he is professional in every sense of the word he instills in me an incredible sense of confidence when it comes to treating my cancer he. Listens to your concerns with compassion and is excellent at reliving certain fears you have about your cancer he is truly concerned about you and any additional problems that always crop up with cancer patients eg anxiety fear of secondary cancers family concerns thank god for dr furman and others like him who have devoted their life to helping people like me deal with cancer with the attitude that hey I can beat the dreaded disease cancer at present there is no cure for my cancer but with dr furman and his dedicated staff at least I have a fighting chance through his treatment options which have kept going for five years and his continuing research to one day and hopefully soon discover a cure
