Anthony Jasso, Executive Advisor at Leverage Supply Chain Group shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Some doctors practice medicine.
Some doctors change lives.
Dr. Naveen Pemmaraju, MD is one of those rare physicians who does both. During my battle with Acute Myeloid Leukemia at UT MD Anderson, Dr. Pemmaraju brought something into the room every single morning during rounds that is hard to describe but impossible to forget. Energy. Positivity. Hope.
Even on the days when the information was difficult to hear, he took the time to explain everything in a way my wife and I could truly understand. He never rushed the moment. He never made us feel like just another patient.
You could feel his passion for his work and his love for the people he serves. That kind of care matters more than people realize when you are fighting for your life.
His dedication to research, his faith in science, and his genuine compassion for patients and caregivers make him truly the best in class. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Dr. Pemmaraju.
My wife, my caregiver, and so many other patients are alive today because of physicians like you who lead with knowledge, compassion, and purpose. You are a blessing to so many families.”
