      I know we all insist that your oncologist matters…and it does!!! A specialist in Melanoma stays up-to-date on all the newest information and medications, giving you a greater chance of good outcomes.

      But do we focus as much on our surgeons?? All surgeons are NOT created equal. Here’s a new study out thats a good guide on what you should look for and what you should ask before surgery to get a better outcome.

      Always do your homework and keep fighting!
