Hi Colleen,
I’m hoping you can help me out. I’ve been recently diagnosed with throat cancer, base of tongue, HPV positive. I’ve scheduled an appointment with Dr. Moore for next week for an initial consult. I’m traveling from New York for this appointment and my question is whether or not it would be possible to meet with other members of the team i.e. oncology, chemotherapy, etc…. If you could point me to the right person in the department that would be awesome, I’d just like to make the most of my visit there - and I’d like to get treatment started ASAP.

I’ve had all of the tests run at the hospital in New York and we have a treatment plan ready to go. The reason I’m looking for a second opinion is because I was hoping to have de-escalated version of radiation as opposed to the six or seven weeks that my Dr’s here in NY are proposing.
