Flat and Non Polyploid Tumors

Has anyone had flat or non polyploid tumors?  If so, what were the results?

Has anyone gone to the surgeon Dr. Nash at Sloan?

When I call the new patient number at Sloan, do I get to choose what surgeon I want to see?  Will they also assign an oncologist to me or just the surgeon?

 

Thank you.

    I go to MSK

    And see Dr.  Paty there.  Dr. Nash has an excellent rep. Unless you have a Dr requesting a specific surgeon,  you will be assigned a Dr.  My primary care requested Dr.  Paty for me. Your surgeon will select your oncologist, unless you get assigned to an onc first.
