Medford OR is not too far away from Seattle. University of WA Medical Center is ranked 4th in cancer treatment in the country by US News and World report and 12th in their Head and Neck department.

Dr. Neil Futran is the head of their Otolaryngology dept and is both an excellent surgeon and a good guy. My tumor board was held at the UW and the treatment protocols handed down to my local medical team. Both of my surgeries were done at the UWMC. Where the bedside manner wasn't the greatest...I'm still breathing today because of the efforts of the staff there. I'm a bit further out then Medford (Idaho) and it's only a 45 min flight or a 6.5 hour drive to the facility.
