Feel free to email me privately and I will tell of the best docs in WC (at least MO and head & neck). I still go to WC Kaiser for my checkups. They have great oncology advice nurses there and I leaned heavily on them. I had my chemo in WC.
I was fortunate that Kaiser sent me to UCSFCCC for the radation part. Soon they will have their own radiation treatment facilities. Right now it's outsourced.
I just read today that they are going to replace the Oakland Kaiser with an entirely new hospital and a dedicated cancer treatment center.
