If your father is in St. Louis also and wants to stay in the area, look for posts by Nurse Ratched. Her husband was being treated at Siteman Cancer Center at WashU (it's on the list that David linked to) and I expect she would be happy to answer any questions about his care there. You can get her e-mail address (through her profile) or send a private message by clicking on her name at the left of her posts.

April 2006: Husband dx by dentist with leukoplakia on tongue. Oral surgeon's biopsy 4/28/06: Moderate dysplasia; pathology report warned of possible "skip effect." ENT's excisional biopsy (got it all) 5/31/06: SCC in situ/small bit superficially invasive. Early detection saves lives.
