Dr Welsh took my port out on this visit-explained in advance what to expect from beginning to end. She made the port removal very easy and I had very little bruising and no problems as a result of the port. Dr Welsh also did my bilateral mastectomies and I did not have any difficulties following the removal. She is kind, listens to your concerns and gives you helpful information. I had initially consulted with another woman surgeon at NW Cancer over by Sacret Heart and left there extremely discouraged and beat up. I found Dr Welsh, consulted her and immediately felt she understood me and was going to take good care of me. She did just that and myself and husband were extremely pleased with her skill and kindness!

Dr Welsh is very kind, understanding and empathic. She does a great job explaining options and the future outlook. And I am in a post Covid study which does a lot of bloodwork that posts to mychart.
