The cancer center staff is courteous and very professional

03/20/2026

I just have to say thank you!!! He was a doctor who was a friend, because I believe that undergoing cancer treatment isn't easy, and he completed my treatment and managed to eliminate my cancer!!! I believe that for him, being able to give more opportunities for life to a human being must be like winning a prize!!!! I am very grateful to him.

03/16/2026

Es un súper excelente oncologo muy profesional . excelentes trato con el Paciente , Su empatía y calidez humana hacen todas las diferencias en este proceso, si pregunto algo se tomas todos sus tiempo para escuchar me siento en las mejores manos .

03/13/2026

Great experience!

03/13/2026

Great Dr. real sorry to see him leave to another local hospital.

03/12/2026

Dr. Blanc Simon is a great Dr., very knowledgeable and reassuring

03/11/2026

One of the nicest, professional care givers I have encountered in many years. His Assistant Ms. Shoemaker is equally fantastic.

03/11/2026

He is definitely not a people person,he and his NP R Shoemaker.

03/10/2026

Yesterday was the first time I’ve met with Dr Blanc and it was a positive experience.

03/09/2026

Will miss Dr Blanc

03/04/2026

couldn’t be happier

03/04/2026

Love, Dr. Blanc and my nurse practitioner Roszanna

03/02/2026

I recently had an appointment with Dr. Blanc, and I was very pleased with the level of care I received. Dr. Blanc took the time to listen to my concerns, answered all my questions thoroughly, and provided a clear treatment plan. The experience was professional and reassuring, which is exactly what I needed.Concerns About Continuity of Care As I recently transitioned from Dr. Velez, who was my previous doctor, I do have some concerns about whether the hospital can consistently provide the same quality of care. as It’s my fourth change in doctors, and I’m hopeful that Dr. Arnout can maintain that standard. To ensure continuity in my care, I’d appreciate knowing how the hospital supports its doctors in delivering consistent, high-quality patient care. This might include:- Patient Management Systems: Does the hospital use electronic health records that allow doctors to access my medical history easily?- Interdisciplinary Collaboration: How do doctors collaborate with one another to ensure that all aspects of my health are considered?- Follow-Up Care: What measures are in place for follow-ups and ongoing treatment plans?

02/20/2026

He is fabulous. The rest of the office needs work

02/19/2026

I learned he is leaving Trinity Health. What a tremendous loss for patients.

02/19/2026

No tengo comentarios EL DR MICHAEL VÉLEZ ES ESPECTACULAR PERSONA Y MÉDICO LÁSTIMA QUE YA NO ESTA

I was told that he is leaving and I'm sorry to hear that he is going.

02/13/2026

I’m so impressed with Dr Blanc, he shows such compassion.

02/11/2026

I was disappointed to learn after my appointment that Dr. Blanc would be moving on after March.

02/11/2026

He actually listens to my concerns, both verbal and non-verbal concerns about treatment. Very supportive.

02/09/2026

He’s very attentive and his whole staff treat you respect and is very pleasant to interact with.

02/09/2026

01/20/2026

Dr. Blanc is professional and very caring

01/20/2026

I feel as though he did not know anything about me and was dismissive of my concerns

01/20/2026

I would recommend him to anyone that needs an oncologist. He’s the best of the best.

01/19/2026

He explained What was going on with me very well that I was able to understand and order a scan of my belly. Waiting to hear from his office now for appointment for my scan.

01/16/2026

Sorry he’s leaving. For his very ill patients it’s truly a loss—his bedside manner must be a comfort and encouragement.

01/15/2026

good doctor

01/14/2026

Un gran médico, muy profesional y con mucha empatía. Él y su asistente la Doctora Razsana me han tratado muy bien, han sido muy pacientes y son muy humanos. Son una bendición.

01/12/2026

Doctor Blanc is direct and has a caring approach and is a good listener

01/09/2026

All is well

01/08/2026

Great listening to my wishes.

01/08/2026

Love him! He's the best.

01/06/2026

I sincerely believe he has my best interest at heart and will take excellent care of me.

01/05/2026

The entire visit was two minutes. I suppose he got the job done, but I felt like he had one foot out the door as soon as he came in. Stood with his arms across his chest and hardly looked at me - he was focused on looking at the computer and my chart.

01/05/2026

keep up the good work

12/18/2025

I am a very satisfied patient

12/17/2025

Very personal and with professional assistance.

12/12/2025

Wants all his patients to get better.

12/11/2025

Dr Blanc was unprofessional and uncaring. After being under the care of Dr Velez for several years, I was looking forward to getting a fresh prospective on quality of life after 13 surgeries, chemo and radiation. From the moment Dr Blanc entered the room, he was arrogant and had no concern for how I was doing. He did not perform any exam, did not review my labs taken that day that came back abnormal, and said his feelings wouldn’t be hurt if I did not schedule my next appointment with him. He further states that Holy Cross “burns out” all their doctors so I should expect continued turnover with doctors on staff for my future appointments.

12/11/2025

Smart, caring trustworthy

12/09/2025

Doctor BLANC Simon has gorgeous communication skills, he explained clearly everything about my health issues.Thank you very much doctor BLANC.

12/09/2025

Good

12/04/2025

Kind of dumbfounded, how quick the doctor visited me. And then left no more than two minutes.

12/04/2025

Very pleasant. Was definitely pleased 💯 any staff that took care of me. Friendly professional!

12/03/2025

He is very professional and listens to you and genuinely cares about his patients

12/03/2025

I was especially grateful that Dr. Blanc came up with a plan to manage my chronic anemia that promises to reduce the window between when I become anemic and when I get relief from IV iron infusions. He also prescribed vitamin B12, which so far appears to further reduce other troublesome symptoms and improve my quality of life, and he continues to investigate possible causes of my chronic anemia.

12/02/2025

I trust Dr. Blanc to treat my condition and feel I am getting the best care possible.

12/02/2025

Both doctor Somon Blanc and Raszana came by to check on me numerous times. I had an allergic reaction to my chemotherapy treatment and they wanted check on ,me to see if I was ok.

12/02/2025

Awesome doctor and staff

12/01/2025

Confidence

12/01/2025

I have only seen Dr. Blanc twice and he is still new to me; however, he is positive polite and shows interest for my treatment in a good way

11/13/2025

This was my first time seeing Dr. Blanc, I thought he covered everything but was very quick about everything.

11/13/2025

75 min late for 9:00 am appt with no explanation, apology. Was not prepared for visit with medical records as discussed at first visit. No physical contact with me.

11/12/2025

Positive and Realistic information provided.

11/12/2025

Dr. Blanc and I have been on a journey. When I was challenged, he listened and "heard" me. Our relationship is a good one and I'll be forever grateful for his help and care.

11/11/2025

First time of meeting him, it would have been good to have a little more time with him but unfortunately he was running late.

Dr. Blanc was on call so I visited with Raszana Shoemaker, DNP who was very through going over my chart. I liked her very much. Hopefully I will meet Dr Blanc when I return in 6 months (he replaced Dr. Velez).

10/24/2025

The greeting staff is unacceptable and needs immediate improvement.

I got there at 12 for my 12:15 appointment. They took me within 2 minutes and did the workup immediately. When the nurse was done the doctor came in and we talked for at least 10 minutes. He was knowledgeable and honest. He had also done his homework, he knew my case intimately.

In control of all my health needs and communicates with my other medical staff.

09/19/2025

It’s rare to find a Dr that will listen and really take the time to ensure I as the patient understand everything discussed. Especially something as heavy as Leukemia. Outstanding Dr. just outstanding. Everyone asks if I’m at Sylvester. I smile and say no- Holy Cross Dr Blanc. Couldn’t do better.

I sincerely appreciated his thoroughness in running all the relevant blood tests and his explanation of the results.

08/05/2025

Dr. Simon is very thorough and kind. My only issue was the wait time for my blood work results from the lab. I should not be just sitting for over 2 hours waiting for blood work , before I have to sit for another hour to wait for my medication and infusions. This visit was very disappointing

08/04/2025

Straight shooter with a great sense of humor, even if he was a little jet lagged.
