For Al, how difficult was it to get return calls from the docs so promptly??
Just curious did you ever succeed in sales work, you seem like
a very determined individual who wouldn't take no, but often
it's difficult to stay calm under the pressure, when you're dealing
with sometimes apathetic people. Linda is very lucky to have you
as an advocate.
Best wishes Rosie. I would go with Al's suggestsions. Start with ACS,
University of PA is very good, also I've heard great things about CTA, and did contact them by email a few times.
Drs. John Glick and Kevin Fox are two of the most well known at Univ of PA
for breast oncology.
They're are a few women oncs at U of PA who also have been
recommended on the sites.
There is a women doc at Fox Chase, outside Philly. I had one consult
with her, her name is Lori Goldstein. She is noted on their site
as specializing in drug resistant breast cancer.
If you would like my doc's name, please email me, its a private group
near Philly, known for aggressiveness and affiliated with Jefferson.
My cancer center director is formerly of Sloan, a breast disease specialist, and surgeon. Oncs and surgeon will return calls. Maybe they would direct you.
I agree with others, don't give up, keep calling. Get as much info as you
can on the phone.
