Thank you all so much for taking the time to respond. To add to frustration, our appointment with our ENT surgeon to discuss our plan after he met with tumor board did not happen. Doc had flight delays. Set us up with resident who clearly did not know what was going on & we spent 20 mins telling him & found out by asking him that tumor board did not meet & to top it off he told us margins were not clear, which our doc said they were so told boy wonder resident to check his computer screen again & he verified we were right. Grrrrrrrr...took every ounce of my will power not to jump over table at him. So now we wait again for this life alterring appointment....2 weeks but hopefully less. Sadly, this incident puts a sour taste in my mouth & not totally confident anymore. This is a comprehensive well respected cancer clinic. Ah well. I suppose it happens everywhere. Could also look at the bright side: clearly docs do not have any sense of urgency regarding him so that could be good. Thank you all again. Now we have time to hear others opinions on this.
