We have just discovered that my mom has cervical cancer. we are not sure how to proceed. is an oncologist the next step?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to her DR.: Talk to the Dr who diagnosed her. Often they will have referrals available within her health plan to help her on the next step. In the early stages of Cervical Cancer your mom will be treated with either surgery or radiation combined with chemo. If her cancer is in the later stages, or has spread, a plan will be developed unique to her situation. An Oncologist will oversee the processes.
