WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Michelle
When faced with a life changing traumatic event and diagnosis, our family was lost and were being offered so many options for treatment. We felt lost in a whirlwind of decisions and were having to absorb so many medical discussions with our doctors.
I reached out to Dr. Minji Jo and she was able to explain each of the options to us in a clear way with the pros and cons to each treatment.
She has been an integral part of my husband’s cancer care treatment. She is very knowledgeable in cancer biology and treatments. More importantly, she goes over and beyond in researching information and advising on different treatment and clinical trial options, so that we can make informed decisions.
I highly recommend Dr. Jo’s services and recommend to everyone to have a patient advocate to watch out for your well-being.

Dr. Minji Jo was so instrumental in helping with my husband’s cancer treatments. My husband started out with breast cancer and did well for two years after his mastectomy. After two years, his cancer metastasized. He had one of the top oncologists in our area who treated him. When he was on chemo, it was Dr. Jo who suggested our Dr. use a second drug with the chemo Ed was taking. She had done studies on the combination of the two drugs and thought it might work better. I will never forget the look on my oncologists face when I told him this. He said, “You know, that is a good idea”! We did see better numbers with this combination which I feel gave us three more years with Ed. Minji dedicates herself to finding the best form of treatment for individual patients and not just finding resources from data. Her experience at the Cancer Research Center proves to be a great resource. If she doesn’t have the answer, she will find it. I highly recommend her as a resource in your time of need, especially for those of us that do not understand the ins and outs of cancer.
