We were fortunate that our local ENT referred us to H&N clinic in Indy. At the appointment H was seen by two surgeons, a dentist, radiation oncologist,and various students, residents, etc. Entire group then met to review and suggest tx plan. Radiation oncologist who was there will be managing tx, follow ups by H&N will be done in 4 weeks after radiation/chemo starts to determine if this treatment course is working.
