Pam..here's the scoop on the best docs in Penn for bladder cancer...all listed in Castle Connelly's best docs in the US
First Doctor: S Bruce Malkowicz MD at U. of Penn
www.castleconnolly.com/doctors/full.cfm?source=ccm&doctorID=80CC012792
Second..Dr.Robert Uzzo at Fox Chase Medical
www.castleconnolly.com/doctors/full.cfm?source=ccm&doctorID=16CC001478
These are the top 2 in Penn in bladder cancer..Dr. Malkowicz trained at USC/Norris..top hospital for blc ..and Dr. Uzzo at Cleveland Clinic..another top hospital for urology.
Make the calls to either one and quickly. I can't believe someone would tell you that you have invasive bladder cancer and then said to go on BCG. How about a knife to the heart instead.
Don't mess around with anyone but the best....these are the guys. Drag your husband there if you have to...bribe him with chocolate...whatever it takes ...just get there. Jack i hope you'll pass this on.....thanks
