Second opinion

20 Replies

Hello everyone, so glad to have found this support group.

I am looking for a second opinion on post-surgery treatment options for borderline serous tumour. Could you recommend a good gynecologist- oncologist. Also very interested in remote second opinions, by email or skype.

Thank you so much. The best of health!

Obviously where you live will dictate where you will be able to go to see an oncologist/gynaecologist. I was at St Mary's in Manchester for gynae and Christies for the chemo. Both were brilliant. Good luck with your treatment ❤️

Thank you . I am willing to travel, if necessary. Best of health to you, as well!

I imagine you are in the UK and I wouldnt be familiar with many hospitals there. The Royal Marsden and Christies are supposedly well recommended and they are in the London area. I wish you well on your quest

I travelled to Christies from Belfast for a second opinion and have been under a Professor there since March 2014. He is fantastic and is supported by an excellent team. The Royal Marsden seems to be another popular clinic for second opinions x

Probably the same prof. I've been under since August 2014, he's awesome 😊

He is top of his game. My father is a Dr so we did quite a bit of research. I hope he can help, and if you have any questions I would be happy to help. You can send me a private email if you want to xxx
