Hi @newtonguecancer, Welcome to Mayo Connect.
With the potential for oral cancer, the first contacts would be an Oral Surgeon or an ENT specialist (ear, nose and throat) to examine the area and possibly do a biopsy. With a firm diagnosis and depending on the treatment, the team might also consist of an oncologist, a radiation oncologist and other members as needed.

Have you been diagnosed with squamous cell tongue cancer?
