Dr. Patricia C Rizzo

I’m so fortunate to have Dr Rizzo caring for me. She is confident, knowledgeable, straightforward, and responsive no matter the question or time of day. She responds quickly to email through MyChart and answers questions with facts and options. It’s important to have her expertise and experience to rely on during a difficult and frightening time. I do not hesitate to ask questions, and having her expertise on my case gives me great peace of mind.

Dr Rizzo is there for me and that is what matters. When tests were taking too long to set up, she took over and made them happen. When test results were slow to come, she helped expedite that too. The tests were critical for planning treatment.

Dr RIzzo is there for me. When setting up testing was taking too long, she made it happen. When results were slow in coming, she sped them up. I am grateful for her excellent care!

I am thrilled with Dr. Rizzo. She is top-tier, supportive, communicative, and very generous with her time. Every day, I feel incredibly blessed and grateful to have the support of Dr. Rizzo and her staff.

I strongly recommend Dr. Rizzo, board-certified in oncology & hematology & an excellent partner during treatment. Questions were carefully considered in a spirit of mutual respect & attention. Appointments began promptly; I never felt rushed. Telephone inquiries were handled expeditiously; a nurses hotline fielded routine inquiries. An on-site lab expedited blood test results & chemo drug delivery. Nurses & staff all professional, cheerful & kind. Dr. Rizzo & team fully support patients.

She is very thorough in investigating the cause and effects of my medical condition by observing, asking questions and running tests to find the best solutions. She make sure I keep my appointments by calling me herself. She treat me like she is very very concern for my health and takes her time without making me feel rushed. I highly recommend her to family and friends.

If it weren't for Dr. Rizzo, I'd never have known my breast cancer had returned and spread. She followed up on suspicious tumor markers that led to the realization that it had come back. She is really smart, up on all the latest research and clinical trials, and has a calm, reassuring demeanor. Her front desk staff is always helpful and I've never waited more than 15 minutes to get in to my appointment.

I have never had a doctor like Dr Rizzo. I have spent the past 10 years chasing symptoms, until one of those symptoms brought me to Dr Rizzo. For the past two years she has been my medical quarterback. We have had some victories and some set backs but all the while she has been by my side. If you are looking for a dr that makes you feel like you are her only patient, look no further. Her knowledge, compassion, dedication, accessibility, and vast network is unparalleled.

Dr RIzzo, explained things to me at my level, she showed care and compassion. Would recommend to any of my friends if they needed this type of physician

Impersonal, poor reception service, inability to translate medical terminology into plain language understandable to patient, long waiting time combined with hasty consultation. Not impressed & going for a second opinion elsewhere

I first came to know Dr. Rizzo in September 2012, when she diagnosed my multiple myeloma. I have been doing quite well since then, and have enjoyed being treated in her practice. (The team of nurses is also stellar.) One of the things that I particularly like is that she partners with a subspecialist in multiple myeloma at the Johns Hopkins cancer center in Baltimore, so that while I can get attention close to home from Dr Rizzo I can also get strategic direction and more advanced procedures (autologous stem cell transplant) at Hopkins. I would highly recommend Dr. Rizzo as a knowledgeable and careful doctor who communicates well with patients. If you come down with cancer, you want someone like Dr. Rizzo in your corner.
