Looking for recommendations for an oncologist in the SF Bay Area.  I was diagnosed 11/22/10.  Iam TN and have one positive node that was biopsied plus a 3-cm tumor with smaller tumors around it.  The oncologist that has been recommended by multiple acquaintances that have had breast cancer is not available until Dec. 14.  I don't want to wait that long!  Would appreciate any recommendations anyone could offer.

Thanks,

Donna

    I don't know if Santa Cruz is too far away?

    My Oncologist is wonderful and his name is Michael Wu, San Palo Foundation in S.C

    Good luck to you!

    I would recommend Paula Kushlan at Palo Alto Medical Foundation, along with the whole team there. I also saw Dr Ching as a surgical oncologist. They have a wonderfully supportive and comprehensive setup, and seem very current and experienced. When I was diagnosed I was seen by a team of doctors within 2 days, and surgery was scheduled around 3 weeks later.
