I am a nurse who also has recurring cancer. Dr Bender was very concentrate. He explained treatment plan to my children where they could understand also took time to answer all the questions they asked. He encouraged them to ask questions and listened patiently. I previously was at another provider Dr Bender is much better than previous doctor.
Dr. Bender and his team are very professional, kind, loving. My husband has been with him 4 years. I can not imagine going anywhere else for care. The care is top notch. Dr. Bender has always explained everything to us and addresses all concerns with patience.
I have been a patient of Dr Bender for over 20 years. After a life threatening surgery for a blocked bowel, Dr Bender determined I have protein S deficiency which caused a blood clot. I have been on blood thinners ever since and have not had another incident and remain healthy thanks to his continued efforts to find a correct diagnosis at the time of the blood clot.

Great bedside manner. It was a new patient appointment and Dr Bender had read up on the information and scans I had provided ahead of the appointment and was completely knowledgeable on my health issues. It was a very pleasant experience that he had taken the time to understand my health concerns. All around a Superb team.
Great doctor with a great bedside manner. Dealing with cancer is life changing, Dr Bender will be able to explain what options are available. Easy to talk to. My wife is dealing with a more serious cancer then I and he has asked about her and has answered some of my questions about her cancer.
I've been a patient of Dr. Bender since 2017. At all times I have been treated professionally and with great care and concern for my wellbeing. I value his insights and guidance. Dr Bender and Piedmont helped me through a very difficult period and for that, I am forever grateful.
Dr Bender answered all of our concerns where we understood him completely. We have several friends who made appointments with Dr Bender and they also will continue to see him. Dr Bender is a wonderful person.
Dr. Bender and his staff are caring, kind, compassionate, and professional. We moved to Georgia after my treatment, but that was ten years ago. Dr. Bender took over right where they left off. He is the only physician that I have looked forward to going to.
Dr. Bender and his PA, Charlie, were very engaging and informative! The front desk staff are friendly and the office is very efficient. The office was very busy but Dr. Bender and his PA gave us their full attention and time! Highly recommend!
Very warm and professional. Takes time to explain procedures and out comes in layman terms. Listens to the patient. Do not give a feeling that he's in a hurry. Excellent relaxed environment with Dr. Bender. I will definitely refer to patients in need.
Dr. Bender is one of the best doctors I have ever had over decades on medical treatments. He is friendly, patient, and attentive to my concerns and questions. Plus, he has a very good sense of humor!
