Hopkins has the top Head & Neck dept in the country and is rated 2nd in cancer care...hard to get better care anywhere really. 2nd opinions are prudent but I'd go with John Hopkins if it were me.

I had this surgery done myself and there can be issues with it, which is why you want the best possible team involved in getting the job done. Don't let fear get in the way of getting this taken care of...read the daily quotes dealing with fear in the Coping section for inspiration if you need.

Best Wishes,

Eric
