Case Description
where can I find the top tongue cancer team? NY, Philly ,NJ anywhere I just want to get to the best. Where they will excise the wider excision recommended and look into my slightly enlarged lymph that I will get a PET scan for tommorow. I am hoping the CAt radiologist was hedging when he mentioned the lymph node due to my recent surgers on the tongue.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Hi,I am sorry to hear about your cancer. This is not my specialty, but I have always had high regard for the cancer teams at Memorial Sloan Kettering. They should have an excellent head and neck surgeon there.Good Luck Dr Gochman
