Hello, I was just informed of DCIS reoccurrence yesterday. However, I am in the process of moving to Southern CA. I feel like I need to transfer all med records and continue my treatments there but I have no idea where to begin my search. All of my doctors are in chicago but my husband is already in CA waiting for me. He is my support. Between the move and this new diagnosis, I am stressed. Does anyone have any suggestion on where/how I should start my search.

    Hi there

    I live in Los Angeles.  There are two cancer specialized centers that I know of - City of Hope and BreastLink (breast cancer specialized).  There is also a breast surgeon named Jennie Shen at Huntington Memorial Hospital who is very reputable for breast cancer surgery and treatment.  Please reach out to me if you like if you need more information. Good luck on your move.

    Hi MYA,

    Where will you be living once you move to SoCal? I am being treated at the Cancer Center at Loma Linda University Medical Center. They have an entire team all in one facility, proton treatment, BS, PS, RO, MO. Two BS that I can personally recommend are Dr. Soliman and Dr. Lum. Here's a link:

    Wishing you the best on your move!
