Hi Becky
I just made the switch myself -
My onc. of 6 years left for another hospital in San Antonia and I stayed under the care of one of her fellowship doctors. Very nice and I am sure very knowledgable in his line of cancer, but I did not feel he was as knowledgable in the breast cancer area. I spoke with my P.A. in the unit and explained how I felt, that it was nothing really against him and she told me he would understand completely. She spoke to him and he even called me to go over other oncologist he would recommend in the breast cancer center at the Moffitt hospital where I go. He was very understanding about it and said he would still be interested in my care and to call him. Bottom line is you have to be happy with your choice. This is someone you have to depend on for you care and I am sure your present doc. would understand (or maybe he won't even remember after a few day's anyway ) lol
Good news on your biopsy. Take care and good luck
Irene
