  • "This is my first appointment at Astera Cancer Care and it was a wonderful experience from the front office, the nurse taking my vitals and Dr. Amjad who was just great in everything he said and did to inform me of the options I had and he made me feel more at ease than I was when I first met him. The way he explained those options made me feel so much better and I was then able to make my decision on which way to proceed with my prostate cancer. Thank you everyone."
