This same article I posted takes you to a link of Oncology to check out your oncologists backround. I was reading this guys backround and I see he does seminars at UCLA. Here is a bit of his history if anyone is interested and I will also attached the link to this page in case you want to see a picture of this oncologist.

>>>>Dr. Patwardhan is on the active medical staff at Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center in the city of Pomona, Chino Valley Medical Center in Chino, Doctors Hospital in Montclair, and Kindred Hospital in Ontario. Dr. Patwardhan is a frequent participant in oncology seminars at UCLA Medical Center, Loma Linda University Medical Center, Southern California Association of Clinical Oncologist's (SCACO) and American Association of Clinical Oncologist (ASCO). He also frequently attends tumor board committee presentations at many well-known California hospitals.
In private, Dr. Patwardhan is an avid runner, who stresses that activity is a key to good health for his patients. Dr. Pat has four children and is also a spirited bridge player.>>>>>

Here's the link to his picture if your interested.
