Hello; My 88 yr old brother needs to have a cancerous kidney removed asap. I do not know how to find the best surgeon to perform the procedure. ER suggested a clinic that does it on outpatient but that doesn't sit right with us. He is in good condition for his age.

    I have no idea about a surgeon or hospital in Central Florida, but I agree an outpatient surgery center is no place for surgery of this type, and particularly not on an 88 year old person.
