Found Dr. Colfry after I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.  Since I live on the Northshore, I had to be convinced to have a consult with a physician in New Orleans.  Seems I wanted to make it simple and stay close to home.  Cancer diagnosis is not to be taken lightly and I am so glad I came to see Dr. Colfry.  Our consult must have been an hour and half and he was so very thorough.  I am so grateful that my personal physician was so adamant that I see Dr. Colfry.  He is highly skilled, abundantly compassionate.  He did my bilateral mastectomy and I am currently still under his care.  He made visits to my hospital room THREE times a day while I was in Touro, plus calling to check on me after I got home.  My entire family loves this man.  And he has a wonderful staff.   If you have any questions concerning your breast health (and this is so important), RUN, dont walk to make this appointment with Dr. Colfry.  You can look, but you won't find a more qualified, compassionate physician.
I have NO REGRETS, I look forward to my follow-up appointments.
And I am one grateful patient !!     Carol V. Sharp,  Covington, LA
