Patient Reviews
May 29, 2019
My husband had an MRI ordered by Dr. Benson. It came back showing a tumor in bone of shoulder as metastatic cancer. Dr. Benson said the radiologist was probably paid by the number of words he wrote and it really was arthritis. He was told not to get the biopsy his urologist ordered. They never get enough of a sample and keep doing it. Said my husband didn’t need to go through that. We did have a biopsy at Northwestern and my husband has stage 4 lung cancer metastasized to his bones! Dr. Benson should not be practicing medicine!!
