Finding a Mesothelioma Doctor or Specialist

Because mesothelioma is rare, most doctors are wholly unfamiliar with the diagnosis, progression, and treatment of mesothelioma. Thus, it is crucial, for patients to find surgeons and/or oncologists experienced in treating mesothelioma specifically. Three thousand patients annually means few doctors will see more than one or two in a lifetime, but it also means specialists will see hundreds, if not thousands, each year.

What if all the specialists are far away from me?

Many patients choose to travel to mesothelioma specialists, but even those who do travel coordinate some of their care through local physicians and oncologists. These specialists understand the difficulties facing patients and their families and are happy to work with you to develop a plan despite the physical distances involved.
