Re: Not a Happy Camper

Joyce,

This

<<The last time our Oncologist did not like the fact that we were
willing to travel>>

does not make sense. Why should an oncologist care WHERE you decide
to get treatment? To the contrary, the oncologist ought to be
helping you find the BEST surgeon regardless of location!

<<Hollywood, Florida to see Dr. Cohn who has done RFA of the lung
many times>>

That is an EXCELLENT idea...personally I would not return to a doctor
who has "screwed up" something as critical as this! Surgeon
experience is very important...you do not want to be part of the
learning curve!

Best,

Keith
