Upon my arrival, Jonesboro had not forwarded my last MRI, so the first to interview me didn't have all the information. Later, the primary Doctor had studied the MRI and was more informative.

I feel Dr. Vural is a great doctor but he always seems very busy. I feel rushed when ever I see him. I am old and think at a much slower rate. Would like literature on my cancer. I plan on trying to learn how to use UAMS patient portal and going to library to obtain this info. ..for example what is the average progression of this cancer, different treatment options, palliative care ...
