I'm leaving on my other post where I asked for advice. There were quite a few suggestions to get another opinion. Our four kids are pushing for this too. What is the best way to go about getting a second opinion? Should I get on the internet and find phone numbers for Comprehensive Cancer Centers and call? Maybe I should get copies of all records and send them and see if one of these hospitals will see Jack? Maybe I should talk to one of his oncologists and have them start the ball rolling??? I always feel when I talk to a doctor about a second opinion that they may take it personally thinking that I feel they are incompetent or whatever.

From the reading I have done at OCF, I see M. D. Anderson and Johns Hopkins at the top of most lists for expertise in oral cancer. As Dan Bogan said though, Mayo's is located very close to us in Wisconsin. I know they do good work with some cancers. What about oral cancer? Does anyone have an opinion?

Thanks in advance for helping us out.
