Pat. my wife went there for polminary hypertention because she was refered there, they told her they were the best. I'm sorry to say they did nothing for her!! But that was not cancer!!It still looks promising though! It's got to be better than what I'm getting now.I don't think I qualify for assistance, I make too much money!?!

glad to oblige! i'm such a good butt kicker. But seriously this is a first class hospital and first class surgeon and costs will not be anymore than a local hospital.....in fact my local hospital cost me more than Memorial Sloan.
If you qualify for assistance we have on our site many organizations that can help out. Just go to the home page to find them or if you can't find them i'll help you navigate.

Thanks Pat. I'm about 230 miles from St. Louis. I don't think I could afford them in St Louis and the lost wages and the hotel.But I could check.My insurance will not cover it all.
