Re:Newly diagnosed with CIS - Mayo Clinic or Dr.Lamm?

Hello Steve,

This is a confusing time for you I'm sure. I'm glad to hear that you are pursuing second opinions.

I would think that a major difference between the Mayo and Dr. Lamm is that Dr. Lamm is in private practice now. This means that he may or may not have access to certain resources that are available at a major, comprehensive cancer center.

There is no reason to get three or more opinions since each doctor provides a different experience and perspective. I consulted with Dr. Lamm and he is a wonderful doctor. I had my doctor/surgeon @ UCSF but consulted with him on my BCG treatments.

Wish I could help you on the Mayo clinic. I'm sure there are others that will provide additional input.

Best of luck.
