in Anal Cancer #1

For the past 18 months, due to anal cancer, I've been utilizing MD Anderson for some of my care. I've been mostly happy with care received. They are one of the few in this country with a specialization in anal cancer treatment. For reasons too complicated to explain here, I may have to move to Northern New Jersey. It's likely I would lose access to MD Anderson, due to insurance reasons.

Sloan Kettering is of course a great hospital. But, after an Internet search, I didn't see much being done for anal cancer specifically. But maybe I missed something.

I wonder if anyone has experience with Sloan Kettering or any other area hospitals.

Thank you!

    Sloan Kettering

    I recall another member(sandysp) on our board that used Sloan Kettering for her anal cancer treatment and she seemed very sattisfied wiyh her treatment.  If I remember correctly she commented actively on this board 2-3 years ago.

    Here is a link to her bio on this board.
