Some top cancer centers may choose who they want to treat, just like this national chain brand cancer center does, that has great marketing, but may not take a chance to lower their succes rates with risky patients, and know of a few people that were turned down, including myself, one at the "almost top" cancer cancer in the U.S, who didn't even want to consult me with, wasting my time, money, under the pretense they would. As mentioned, a doctor that may not treat one, may be treated by another, and may come down to their experience not just by their location, and I'm not brand loyal, like they aren't. Good luck.
