Hi,
Just had a surgery to remove a 1.5cm tumor (RCC, clear cell) in my right kidney. But pathology report shows that the tumor extends to the margin of resection. I need a second opinion to see if I need another surgery to completely remove the tumor. Anyone can recommend experienced kidney cancer surgeons in MD/DC area? Thanks

I replied on your other post with the doctor that did mine, he is in Richmond, VA but is one of the finest surgeons around. Dr. Guruli and Medical College of Virginia hospital.

In the Fredericksburg, VA area Dr. Elmore Becker of Urologist Associates of Fredericksburg is a great doctor as well.
