Just found that daughter-in-law has had surgery and found that cancer might be invasive. Someone suggested the Roswell Cancer Clinic in Buffalo. Is there a place that we should consider beside Roswell?

Thank you for your help!

According to US News and World Report, Memorial Sloan-Kettering in NYC is #! comprehensive cancer center in USA -- certainly they have a large HNC program. You might consider a consult there, we did and got a lot of good advice.

Thanks Barb, I found that yesterday. My daughter-in-law's father is a retired dentist from Rochester. I think he suggested Roswell because of "connections". My feeling is that why not just go to #1 (Sloan-Kettering). Duke University has been trating her for about five years without success in halting the tumors. The last one is thought to be invasive and they now want to cut deeper. My wife and I are in the "fast lane" of learning.

I hope things work out well for her where ever she ends up getting treatment. I went to a regular place and had standard treatment by a wopnderful doctor and a wonderful team. I am going to be around a long number of years though and I hope she is as well.
My thoughts will be with her and your family as well.

Blessings,
Barb~
