Susan O'brien seems amazing. Also Tanya Siddiqi who specializes in Car T research. I don't know either of them but through my research (on YouTube) I have been very impressed.

Www.cllsociety.org provides a list of specialists. Scroll to the bottom of the page under toolbox, then CLL doctors. Then click on the Pdf. They are listed by state. I am not personally associated with these doctors. I live in San Diego and am seen at UCSD. Good luck Sally

My oncologist is retiring and my last appointment is tomorrow. So i went to city of hope patient referral and signed up yesterday. Got call today that I have an appointment with Dr Siddiqi on Thursday. I also signed up through CLL society and got feedback today for a referral. They have Doctors in Orange and San Diego counties.

Alexey Danilov, City of Hope top specialist

I see Dr. Kevin Kelly at USC Norris Cancer Center. I was referred to him last September by my local hematologist and it was the best thing that’s happened to me. I started treatment then and now I’m doing great. I not only like him but the whole staff at the hospital are awesome.

Thank you so much for your recommendation. Have you been diagnosed with CLL?

Dr. Susan O’Brien is amazing and has a great bedside manner. She is brilliant.

Yes, prior to starting treatment I was on w & w for eight years. I’m presently on V +O, going on my fifth month.

It really depends on what part of Southern Ca you live in. There are many options for CLL Specialists and how far you want to travel. Could you tell us your City?

Susan O'Brien at Irvine is the best! She was my Dr at MDA prior to Irvine. Check out her resume and you'll very quickly learn that she is in the top group in the world.
