I definitely dreaded going to my onc. This week we decided to part our ways. I never really liked him--he came in after my treatment was through and pretty much did not care about me. At least that was my feeling. Then an oncology group took over his practice--one I already had had a bad experience with--so it was "hasta la vista". I don't like the new doctors and their philosopy which is pretty much, money money money. I would never have gotten Herceptin if I would have stayed with them in the first place. That doctor from that practice pretty much made fun of what I learned on the web. Now I have a real good excuse to never have cancer again since I can't find a doctor! As if one needs and excuse.
I like my dentist! I actually met her through a friend of hers that was on this site! The owner of the office had BC same type --ER/PR neg. Her2 +++ and that office went out of their way for me.
So, Joe, you see this site helps some of us in many, many ways!
