I have all the respect in the world for NPs but never see one in place of my oncologist (every 3 months). Never see one in place of my local physician either.
I did work with a NP for 8 years when I was being diagnosed and treated for Lyme disease and then MS. She helped navigate the difficult road of finding help with an undiagnosed, chronic disease -- finding the right doctors and researching latest treatments.
