    Hi Rosabella, I'm in St Augustine and I go to Cancer Specialists of North Florida. I love them they're great. They have 4 Dr's that are Hematologist/Oncologists. My Primary sent me there upon Diagnosis and I love them. They have a 'team' set up at the local hospital and communication between all the Dr's is great. I know it's drive but maybe if your friend could get a ride it might be worth the 2 hrs. I get my Chemo at the same place only up stairs. They also have an onsite Pharmacy and normally if I need anything it's ready before I leave OR they can fax it to your pharmacy (CVS, Walgreens etc.)

    A friend of mine on this board who was recently diagnosed told me there is an M.D. Anderson facility in Jacksonville. That is a top rated cancer facility.

    thank you bella. I'm suggesting to her to check out md Anderson in jax. I'll let you know if she has questions. Hopefully she will go for a visit there. She's done the biopsy part, doesn't really like the surgeon or onc. So we'll see. Thanks again.
