Steve,
Many doctors welcome second opinions.
When Christine was dx'ed in 1990, she had a second, third and forth opinion. Interestingly enough we chose the surgeon on the recommendation of an attorney whos firm defended physicians in malpractice suits. His wife also had bc and he polled his fellow attorneys as to the best available in New Jersey. Dr. Elise Santoro and Dr. Richards Michaelson at St Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston.

Regards
Joe
