I was also not treated in a CCC. Surgery at Emory, Radiation at Griffin, Port and PEG (Griffin) and Chemo in Lovejoy, PET in Fayetteville.
The important point is that all of these talked with each other, were up to date and had new equipment (rad). So it was the surgeon who said you need radiation. I do not see the point it traveling a great distance just to get a standard chemo, that really can be done anywhere.
So it can work, but you also have to be proactive (easily said!) or have someone with a medical degree in your corner (if you are lucky!!). In general if at all possible a CCC is the way to go.
