Multi-disciplinary: It is critical to find a medical oncologist who is willing to be your quarterback who can coordinate the patient's care whatever is needed at the right time and place. Consider a cancer center that uses a multi-disciplinary approach and clinic where the patient is seen by all specialists concerned on one day after the patient's case has been studied together by the team.

Cancer Center: The easiest way to establish your cancer care at a designated cancer center. These are nationally recognized institutions which have all the resources that patients need to take care of their disease. They typically have multiple medical & radiation oncologists from which to choose. Visit http://www.Nccn.Org/members/network.Asp.
