    Dr. Schulte was so kind, but what I loved most was his absolute honesty. He showed compassion and care while answering my questions, even when he didn't know the answers. My particular sarcoma is extremely rare, and he was very honest about not knowing what my treatment plan was going to be until all testing after surgery would result in. I appreciated his honesty, and kindness, and his passion for what he does to help save lives. I can tell that he truly cares about his patients, and that means more to me than I can begin to express.
