Re: Looking for Help in Italy

This is what my friend wrote:
I don't know of any particular surgeons
though the European Cancer Institute in Milan is the premier cancer center
in Italy with world-famous oncologists and surgeons. I would highly
recommend she contacts them. She might have to go privately if she wants
urgent appointments.

Hope this helps. Catia is a PHD and she has travelled widely. Also, I know that a few years ago Health Care standards in Europe were compared, and Italy did really well. I think it was in the top 3.
