Does anyone here get treated at AdventHealth Orlando or Moffitt in Tampa? We may make a move in the future.

I was under the care of Dr. Shah at Orlando Health Breast Cancer Care Institute for two years when I was first diagnosed. The level of care I received there was exceptional. She always arranged my appointments for the same day and everything took no longer than 2 hours. I also was followed very closely by a pharmaceutical oncologist on Dr. Shah's staff who contacted me at least once per week to check to see how I was doing. Under Dr. Shah's care I became NED while taking Kisqali. I had gone to the Moffitt Center and was given Dr. Shah's name by a nurse that worked Moffitt. I am so glad she gave me her name.

I had to move from Orlando about a year ago and unfortunately my level of care is certainly not the same as when I lived there but I am doing well at the moment. I just wanted to let you know about Dr. Shah if you live in the Orlando area.

My oncologist, Dr. Hung Khong, moved to Moffitt a few years ago and her was absolutely stellar! Highly knowledgeable, empathetic, and a wonderful listener. Highly recommended!

I see Dr. Hung Khong at Moffitt Cancer Center twice a year and like him very much. In between I see a local oncologist. You will like Dr. Khong. Best wishes on your move. Blessings, Hannah

So sorry that I didn't see you and asked another question. I live in Panama City, FL. and go to Florida Cancer Affiliates locally. Have you decided if you are going to move to Florida? Blessings, Hannah

Is anyone here in remission at the moment? Or NED?

If so, do they keep you on treatment? And are you doing anything other than taking the mainstream...
