Hello!
Can someone recommend a reputable radiation facility in South Jersey?
I was told that a physicians experience and calibration is important when making a decision where to go.
I am having surgery at a top cancer hospital in NYC but too far to travel for 4 weeks to have radiation.

    No recommendation but...
    Sorry I can't recommend a facility but would mammosite radiation be an option for you? With mammosite, the radiation is only 5 days (twice a day) and not 4 weeks.

    Hugs,

    I went to Fox Chase Cancer
    I went to Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, i still go there for treatment. I am not sure where you live in s. jersey, but this is a great place and has an outstanding reputation. It is off of Cottman Ave on I-95, so depending on where you live it may not be too far for you. Sorry, but i am not familiar with anyplace in Jersey. i have the name of my radiation doctor at Fox Chase, if you need it, i will PM it to you
