Recommended Doctor
Deborah Ann TURNER MD
Oncology (Cancer) - Iowa Des Moines

Having been diagnosed with uterine cancer, I was referred to Dr. Turner by my primary physician.
I cannot express enough praise for Dr. Turner, as a physician and a human being. Compassion and understanding are so important at a time when you are dealing with cancer.
I recommend her to everyone...she is simply the best.

In December 2005 I was diagnoised with stage four ovarian cancer at the young age of 35. Cancer can strike at any age and it's crucial to find an excellent doctor, I mean we're talking about life and death here. Dr. Turner is my oncologist and she is absolutely amazing, words cannot express my gratitude for all she has done for me. I've completed my chemo treatments and I'm doing fantastic. As of today there are no cancer findings. I highly recommend Dr. Turner, she is the most beautiful person that I have ever met and she is very much loved by my family and we will cherish her forever. I'm especially thankful that my children have a healthy mommy. Everyday is truly a miracle. God bless you!

I currently receive treatment from Dr. Turner due to ovarian cancer cells found during my hysterectomy in 2004. Her specialty is both Gynecology and Oncology - which makes her quite unique in the state of Iowa. She has an excellent bedside manner and is very supportive in her care by taking into consideration the treatments her patients want as well as what is recommended for their conditions. She is always very thorough with her examinations and willing to provide any information you may need about the results and how it involves your future treatment. I cannot suggest her highly enough. She currently works with Mercy Surgical Affiliates at the Mercy Hospital campus, but was willing to provide me services even though my surgery was at Lutheran Hospital.
