Gordom ,I am with you . We have some of the best plastic surgeons in the country right here in Atlanta . I fail to see why your surgeon would have a problem consulting one for your surgery.
Insist on it, and a second opinion, Emory has a great cancer center ask for a referral.
If I can be of any help ,please get in touch.
