Welcome, @tinytoni. I added your question to the Head & Neck Cancer Support Group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/head-neck-cancer/) as well. I'm tagging @hrhwilliam @mrf @gypsygem @sepdvm @denisebrown67 who can share their experience with parotid tumors or other head and neck cancer at Mayo Clinic in Rochester.
You might also be interested in watching this archived video with 2 of Mayo Clinic's leading surgeons in Otorhinolaryngology, Dr. Eric Moore and Dr. Daniel Price, discussing parotid tumors.

You will be in good hands at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Has a referral already been submitted?

@colleenyoung Dr. Eric Moore performed a total parotidectomy and neck dissection to remove the tumor. Mayo is, in my opinion, the best place to get care. It will be 3 years in August. I met Dr. Moore on August 17, and my surgery was on August 28. I am very grateful to everyone at Mayo Clinic.
