Great staff, Wonderful doctor, and very clean and nice office

Okay, the staff and the doctor is very good, but the only thing that I don't understand is why is the turnover so much in his office? Because you get used to a nurse and then boom, that nurse is gone and it's another one there. So I would just like to know why. Thank you.

This follow-up visit. I had cancer treatment from Dr. Wadehra for the past 10 months. I couldn't have more compassionate, knowledgeable care from his staff. Dr. Wadehra's infusion center is the best service and highest compassionate care I have experienced at WellStar

I miss where you could talk to someone about making an appointment. Somehow they make appointments in some back office, and then I've asked and requested that you give me paperwork to tell me when the appointment is. You used to, you would talk to somebody and you could say, I want to be on a Tuesday at 11 o'clock. But somehow they'd make back appointments and they decide your time. They decide when you're coming in. I don't really like that. They've kind of streamlined it where somebody just makes an appointment for you and you don't get any choices in the appointment time and when. You have to call back and reschedule it if it doesn't work for you. I miss kind of personality of just talking to somebody about making your appointment instead of it just being made. It needs to be more personal contact for making your appointment.

TamekaCare
Tameka Pearson experienced the best and the worst of women’s health in a decade. When she overcame her first health challenges, a new breast cancer diagnosis tested her again. As Tameka conquered cancer with the support of her family and her Wellstar cancer care team, she only grew fiercer in her dedication to self care.
Overcoming health challenges
Look back a decade and you’ll see Tameka, a mom of three, teaching middle school students. She started out as a special education teacher, then became an English and language arts teacher. She said, “I truly loved trying to figure out how to help the students learn the curriculum in a different way and to help them cope with their disabilities.”
She was also coping with her own issues at the same time—fibroids, heavy bleeding and pain. After five years, she had a hysterectomy and went through menopause at 36 years old. It took a year to recover, and she gained 60 pounds, high blood pressure, anxiety and depression.
“The heaviest I could lift was my clothes basket,” she remembered. “When I got clearance to exercise, I changed my eating habits, my mindset and my life for the better.”
A new focus on building strength shaped her into a new woman—inside and out. She rose at 4 AM daily, lifted weights, taught students and returned home for time with her family.
A second diagnosis
In peak physical condition at 43 years, Tameka scheduled her routine annual mammogram. She got called back for a second mammogram due to dense breast tissue.
“Getting a call back after a screening mammogram means that the doctor wants to look at something more closely,” said Diane Harris, RN, a certified oncology nurse navigator at Wellstar Douglas Medical Center. “It does not mean you have cancer, but if you do, finding it earlier could save your life.”
But for Tameka, further imaging led to more tests and finally, a needle-guided biopsy. Two days later, she got a call confirming she had triple negative breast cancer. She said, “I felt like this little bump can pretty much dictate the rest of my life. When I heard the term ‘breast cancer,’ my world stopped. I cried for about two weeks straight.”
