    I live in rural, northwest
    I live in rural, northwest Oklahoma. I was treated at Dexeus Oncology in Enid. He worked at MDA and is a fabulous doctor. He still consults with MDA (he did on my case) and the pathologist here sent my slides to the Mayo Clinic, so I never felt the need to go anywhere else.

    Hi again...
    I posted earlier that I was treated in Central Wisconsin. Just in case you were doing some sort of tracking thought I'd throw in that I was first treated for Stage3 Anal Cancer but recently diagnosed with a rare Breast Cancer...Secretory Carcinoma (accounts for < 1% of all BC). I had a double mastectomy and am currently taking Arimidex as my cancer was ER+. I feel always on watch for liver mets from one or both!

    HI
    I am in Yonkers, NY and am a patient of Sloan Kettering. I had chemo and radiation and everyone seems to know exactly what they are doing. I have good follow up care. One thing they say though, is that when it comes to recovery, everyone is different. But I think MSK is an amazing cancer center and can't say enough good things about it. I felt lucky to be close to it.

    I'm in Massachusetts and was treated at the Lahey Clinic in Burlington MA. They were excellent. If anyone needs a really good oncologist in the New England area, I highly recommend Dr Keith Stuart at the Lahey Clinic - he's wonderful.

    I am going to Cleveland
    I am going to Cleveland Clinic. I thought about Sloan-Kettering and the Cancer Center in Texas. I am raising 2 of my grandchildren, and didn't want to have worry about my girls while gone. Glad I chose to stay close to home because now I am also a widow. I am stage 4, mets to the liver when diagnosed last August. Today after, chemo, radiation and liver surgery I am cancer free with no major side effects. Thank you Lord!
