Stage 4 GEJ: Should we switch to MAYO?

I highly recommend Mayo Clinic - Rochester, Minnesota - where I was treated last year with excellent results.

I had two months of FLOT chemo followed by 25 radiation sessions (plus 3 more chemo treatments) and then an Esophagectomy.

I had a feeding tube for 8 months as I could not swallow originally, then chemo and radiation messed up my taste buds.

My doctors - the Mayo doctors - are experienced, skilled, and caring as are their staffs.

I moved to Rochester to have my treatment, the best decision I made.

The whole EC experience is very challenging, but you will fight your way through it.

You will be happy if you choose to go through that fight with the Mayo professionals.

We can visit if you want.

Thanks for replying @gdj ! What stage were you at the time of diagnosis? And how long did you wait for the treatment to begin after moving to Rochester?
