I'm trying to get my Mom to Sloan-Kettering for treatment (Stage IV with mets to lungs, now has mets to brain, undergoing WBR). When I call the referral service I have been assigned to see Dr. Veach, whose speciality seems to be lung cancer. I would rather she sees a BC specialist. Does anyone know of a good BC specialist at Sloan-Kettering, and what's the best way to get an appointment with a specific doctor? (I did get 2 names on another board - Dr. Hudis and Dr. Dang).

I would appreciate any advise. Thanks, All. This board has been such an emotional support for me.
