Do not be afraid to ask your doctor for a recommendation to get a second opinion, particularly when you have a good relationship with them. Sometimes an internist or family doctor knows a practitioner who sees patients with Mesothelioma when there is Mesothelioma Care Center near by.
When your doctor cannot assist you in finding a second opinion, you can find one when you ask Dr. Gill the oncologist here at the Mesothelioma Research Foundation of America. Dr. Gill will help you find the closest doctors who are experts in this field. Another option is to check local medical schools to discover if they treat Mesothelioma. You can use our web page to find additional references and links to government cancer websites.
