At a comprehensive cancer center you typically get the combined skills of a multi-disciplined head and neck cancer team (surgery, radiation, and chemo) to evaluate your case and determine the best course of treatment -- IF you need treatment. (I hope you don't -- you may still find that your biopsy shows something benign.)
On this site, under Other Resources, there is a link to comprehensive cancer centers that have been designated as such by the National Cancer Institute.
