Anyone have experience with Dr J Maxwell (surgical oncologist) at MD Anderson in Houston ??

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) Support Group.

Oncologic Endocrinology team at MD Anderson shares an elevator and the floor with Head and Neck. From my experience in anything above the shoulders Dr Zafereo is a magician. I am going to look what teams Dr Maxwell works with.

Dr Maxwell has recommended surgery for my husband and I was just wondering
if anyone had experienced surgery performed by her.

If you don't mind sharing, is your husband currently getting treatment for the NETs? I also have Nets of the mesentery (small bowel area) and currently getting Lanreotide shot each month after surgery 2 years ago. What symptoms does he have?
