Wow - new to the group and two posts in two days.....

I have Kaiser insurance and am trying to figure out which oncologist I should make an appointment with to check out a lump. The Franklin center is closest to my home. Just wondering if anyone out there has experience with any of their docs.

Thanks!

Gees I was hoping we could help with the dr. But no one lives in CO. Actually there are very few from the western areas. We have one in NV, a couple in CA, a couple in WA state. A couple in NE. A few in TX. But most come from the eastern states from MN to NY and south to NC and KY. I think the largest group is in OH. Have you called any of the Cancer agencies around? American Cancer Society? If there is a Komen group in your area they might be able to help with some names of specialists. Sorry I can't be of more help. Keep us posted. Hugs MK

Simone,
You probably need to make an appt with a surgeon first, the oncologist won't need to see you unless you are dx'd with cancer. Hopefully the onc won't be needed but if you do I have a great one at Rose Medical, at the Rocky Mtn Cancer Center. We have terrific docs here.
Hugs, Pam
