Dr. Hudis....this is why I flew out to see Dr. Slamon....I truly believe that
Sloan is NOT the Mecca it once was believed to be. They are doing
some wonderful research (trials etc) but when Lani mentioned goling by
the OLD gold standard...this is hitting the OlD nail on the head.

PS Shame on Dr. H....for writing that article he has now caused set backs
for many woman who may be denied Herceptin.
