There are are some of the best ccc hospitals, doctors for Head & Neck Oncology, Surgery here....Memorial Sloan Kettering, Mount Sinai, Columbian Presybeterian, Beth Israel, New York University.... For treatment, you can stay at American Cancer Society's Hope Lodge on West 32nd street, and it's free, or do thier tretmrnt protocol locally, except surgery.
