    Dr Sayre became thoroughly familiar with my medical history, medical issues, and my priorities for treatment; he formulated a treatment plan that has been adopted by my attending hematologist/oncologist team, who defer to him for progress analysis and adjustments to treatment.He is very approachable, patient in explaining the pertinent details of disease and treatment, inspires confidence, and is kind. Very comforting to me.

    Dr Sayre was thoroughly familiar with all aspects of my medical condition, obviously very knowledgeable and experienced, provided very convincing details that verified the information I had received from previous medical staff, briefed me on options and treatment details that I had not heard previously, was very kind, considerate and caring. He is a very impressive asset of UCSF medical expertise; I learned a great deal and felt very comfortable with what he said and advised, and gives me confidence that I am receiving exceptional care for my condition and goals.

    Dr. Sayer is an extraordinarily good listener and communicator-he's gifted at translating medical treatments into digestible outcomes, then listening to my concerns and helping me make decisions. He's positive and upbeat, which I find reassuring. What he doesn't know, he defers to those he respects and brings those approaches into his protocol to give me the absolute best possible outcome. I couldn't ask for a better thought partner to make important decisions about my care.

    I have been Dr. Sayre's patient for over 16 years. The outstanding feature of this relationship is that he treats me as a whole person, not just focused on oncology. He reads through my current health issues with other providers, and we discuss.
