Hi, I need your help to find a family doctor in Vancouver. My gp has decided to close her practice and retire in September ... which is horrible timing for me. I've finished radiation and am now taking Tamoxifen for 5 years. I need a family doctor for my follow-up program following breast cancer treatments.

Appreciate any recommendations.

    Hi,

     Dr. Robert Menzies. Hycroft medical on Granville and 16th 739 8011. He has been my doctor for the past 14 years. I was just diagnosed with stage 2 BC in March.

    I would love to hear how Tamoxifen works out for you. Are you HER 2 + as well?

    Thank you for your recommendation. I'm HER 2- ... Tamoxifen has been a bit of a challenge although it's early days.  Sleep disruptions, hot flashes, joint aches. I'm hopeful that my body will get used to this drug.
