I am just now seeing this post. Was just checking to see if you were able to get established with a physician ? I am a melanoma patient and live in Cincinnati. Dr. Leming is a very good oncologist specializing in melanoma, although luckily it does not sound like you will need one wtih a Stage1A! If you need a good surgical oncologist to follow with, I recommend Jeffrey Sussman. He has performed several surgeries on me and is very good. I also would recommend getting your eyes checked with an opthalmolic oncologist. They would know more about what to look for when it comes to melanoma . I followed with one that just retired at UC Medical Center, but I have heard the physiican that took over is very good too. His name is Basil Williams.
Again, I know it’s late in posting this response. I hope that you have been doing well since this was posted!
