Dear Dr. Comizio
I am writing to express my immense gratitude to you as well as your team. I was endowed with love & care both mentally and physically during the journey of fighting against the cancer. I am truly thankful to have all of you alongside. I've learned, grown and now I'm ready to move on. -2020

Dear Dr. Comizio
It has been about 4 years since my breast reduction and wound healing. This year, I got married and was abel to wear my dream dress without a bra and felt I finally had a life event I didn’t dread the bra/fit debacle. For that, I thank you. We were lucky enough to get pregnant our first try (wedding night, of course). I gave birth weeks early due to rapid onset of preeclampsia. We have been recovering well but will be in the NiCu until the due date. For a scary situation, the one thing I have ben able to do is provide breast milk (quite a bit the lactation ladies said). I always feared if I had a reduction, I wouldn’t be able to until I met you. Every person I met at Morristown is amazed at what a great jo you did for me that I am able to have mil for my little boy. Especially in a time like this. I am so grateful for you and wanted to thank you again.

Review from Happy Patient
Dear Doctor Comizio, Barb and Kristen, Thank you all so much for the incredible experience of my breast reduction. At the beginning of 2017, I had no idea this change was in my future, and here I am at the beginning of 2018 with it already behind me....It's hard to believe. The difference in my posture and the way my clothes fit is amazing but the best part is truly how confident I feel. You are a wonderful, caring team. I felt so comfortable and secure in your care. Please enjoy these humble $20 gift cards, and this picture I drew of my lovely boobs. Happy New Year! Keep up the great work!

Dear Kristen, Thank you so much for all your assistance pre & post my reduction surgery. Your "template" for dealing with insurance and other doctors was so helpful to me. You are so organized! I really felt that you gave me the confidence to gather what I needed for the proper submission to insurance. As you know, I did see another surgeon for a consult prior to seeing Dr. C. They gave me nothing. I couldn't have navigated the process without your help. Your calm demeanor just added to the assurance I felt that everything everything was going to work out. Thank you!

Dr. Comizio & Barbara ~
Life is a journey made up with the people you meet and the experiences you have along the way...

Review from Happy Patient | Source: Patient Cards |
I will always remember that day - September 7th 2014. It took one phone call for my life to go upside down. The only thing I heard was breast cancer. I did not hear "early stage, DCIS or Stage 0," only breast cancer.
I was 40 years old; this couldn't happen to me. It was a mistake! I was devastated, lost in translation. Entering this new world full of uncertainty, listening to people talking about things I couldn't possibly imagine existed, madly reading over and over again anything about breast cancer, DCIS, treatments etc..., facing the most difficult decisions I ever had to make in my young life. I felt lonely, lost, like my body had given up on me. I lost trust in myself; I was angry, sad, depressed...I was simply scared.
That story was my story 1 year ago.
Today, I am proud to say that not only am I CANCER FREE, but most of all I feel spiritually free. There is one important thing I have learned through this journey with the support of everyone at Carol G. Simon Cancer Center...GRATITUDE.
Today, I am so grateful for Dr. Gendler and Dr. Comizio, two amazing surgeons full of life, trustworthy, honest, caring and most of all, gifted with a very good sense of humor! A sense of humor was very precious to me when I went through the Carol G. Simon Cancer Center doors and felt empty.
Today, I look forward to going through the Cancer Center doors. I feel the warmth, energy and kindness from everyone. They smile, they hug, they laugh. I feel energized from the spiritual hands of the Reiki and Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioners. I feel blessed to hear the singing bowls.
Today, I am grateful for everyone who helped me become who I am. I am grateful for Lynn, who so kindly welcomed me every time I had Reiki. I am grateful for my music therapist, Leah Oswanski, who took the time to listen to me, and helped me discover the power of music on the mind and body while receiving the enchanted music of the mysterious Somatron chair. I am grateful for my oncology social worker, Kristy Case, who has been there for me all along, listened to me, let me cry and laugh, said the right words and shared some meaningful moments with me, always with a smile and sense of humor. She healed my soul and helped me grow to the person I am today.
In January, I will have moved back to Europe, and feel so sad that those people will not be part of my life anymore. They mean so much to me, and will remain in my heart forever. Carol G. Simon Cancer Center is blessed with genuinely kind people, who love their job because of who they are. Whatever your story is, trust me, Carol G. Simon Cancer Center is here for you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, MERCI.

Dear Dr. Comizio,
Thank you so much. This is a dream come true for me. Thank you so much for taking the time to talk to my insurance company. I can imagine you don’t have a lot of time to do that, being a doctor your life must be hectic. Words can’t describe how happy I am and grateful I am. I have been working for six years for this. Thank you for giving me a chance and helping me feel so much better about myself. I can’t wait to see you on the 29th and be able to say thank you face to face.
Thanks again. Means the world to me.
Sincerely, Brandon

Dr. Comizio,
Thank you for everything. I knew when I saw you & you made me feel comfortable I would be able to face my biggest fear Surgery – going under hospital etc. – Never lose your bedside manner and your unique ability or personality to make your patients feel that they are in good hands not just in education but in your personality. It means a lot – Next Colonoscopy! LOL

Dear Doctor Comizio,
It has been 2 yrs. Ago, July 10. I had my mastectomy. I am so lucky I am here…and feeling better and better as time goes by. Even better than the last time I saw you.
I look back, it was hell. However, you helped and was so nice and sincere.
I think of you often and want to say Thanks.

Review from P | Source: Patient Cards |
Dear “Comiz” –
Words cannot describe how very happy I am for you as you accept this well deserved honor this evening. I hope you know how important you have been in my life as I have traveled the breast cancer journey. While Dr. Gendler is cherished because she removed the cancer and Dr. Guerin because she has given me the best chance at complete recovery, I feel that you are the one who has used your talent, knowledge and love of your profession to “put me back together” and allow me to be “normal” once again. That is a gift I will never be able to repay!
You have a special gift for making women like my sisters & myself feel at east. Your confidence & foresight make you easy to trust. The peace of mind of being able to put my reconstruction in your capable hands allowed me to concentrate on taking care of myself and getting through treatment. For that I am also so grateful.
I am blessed to have met you and have you on my “team” this past year. I am honored to call you my doctor and my friend! Although “Thank You” hardly seems adequate, I say it from the bottom of my heart!
Congratulations to you! You have a long and wonderful career ahead of you.
Love P

Review from Jaye | Source: Patient Cards |
Dr. Comizio
I can’t thank you enough for your incredible care of Brandon. He has struggled with the appearance of his chest for years and was heartbroken to learn that the surgery was going to be out of reach due to cost. Your willingness to persuade the insurance company to pay for it means more to us than words can say. You can’t imagine my gratitude as I watched Brandon cry in the recovery room, saying over & over how happy he was & how much he wanted to thank you. Your genuine compassion truly helped both of us through this experience & it is such a testament to what a wonderful doctor you are.
Again, I thank you very, very much.

Believe in your heart that everything is going to be all right.
