Most towns in florida are small with small hospitals. maybe not the best situation when a person has been diagnosed with a significant cancer issue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Discuss with MD: You may need to spend some time at a medical center for some of your treatments. You may also, in certain circumstances, be able to have portions of your treatments done by a local physician with the guidance of the doctors at the major center. Speak with your cancer physician for details. Best wishes.
