I cannot speak if common practice only my experience. I had my procedure done at UFPTI. My once a week during treatments was with team nurse then my radiologist/oncologist M.D. This was done for 7 weeks. My appointments showed nurse first then M.D.

During after monitoring this was same. I see the team nurse then the radiologist/oncologist. It was a team so consultations, treatments and follow up you are assigned the same nurse and radiologist/oncologist. That is my experience that I had and are both.
