@stldadof4
Thanks for sharing your experience. I will send good thoughts to you and hope everything turns out good. My biopsy is on 12-11. Let us know what you find out.
How do you go about sending your results for a 2nd opinion ? If not in network with your insurance I guess you pay out of pocket. Do you do a video call with the other provider that does the 2nd opinion or do they just send you an email ?
Thanks

@stldadof4 I actually sent all my results to Siteman in STL for a second opinion since I live in mid-MO. I believe they are considered a Center of Excellence and on the NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers list that Colleen posted above. I certainly don't blame you for using those other centers like Mayo, Cleveland, etc., but any reason you wouldn't consider using Siteman since they're in your area? I'm going to start radiation treatment there soon so hopefully you haven't heard anything negative!
