        The Divine Dr. Dawn is Distinctly Deluxe!



        Warning: This review contains graphic descriptions about an oncologist who’s a combo of a dizzying & dazzling tour de force and a tender & humane human. Doc welcomes you with a sparkling smile as bright as the Milky Way. Her fabled passion and compassion sweeten your day [Gasp!]. Do you feel agonizing pangs? Are you nervous or pixilated? Does your pain rage and explode in a cascade you're forced to endure? Dr. Dawn is restless about your grief, nausea, misery. She displays an emotional delicacy about that oddball feeling in your breasts, belly or bones. Let her customize a blueprint for your treatment.



        Delightful and daring, Dr. Dawn giggles, captivates and soothes while remaining calm as a pond. Her smarts, attentiveness & performance are mouth-watering, eye-catching, blood-tingling, hair-raising, spine-chilling & mind-boggling. My rip-roaring doc bids farewell: "Here’s to staying positive & testing negative!" she beams. WooHoo!
