On the right is an excerpt from a speech Dr. Chris Wood delivered at a Kidney Cancer Association Patient Conference. This is a text excerpt from the last few moments of his speech that specifically deals with my situation, a recurrence in the renal fossa. I’m very encouraged by what I read here and by the remainder of his speech.
He is certainly the gold standard for robotic surgery to aggressively confront metastatic recurrence of renal cell cancer. I have also attached information about him. He is the doctor we’d like to be able to see at M. D. Anderson, along with Genitourinary Medical Oncologist Dr. Eric Jonasch
I am in the process of working with the John B. Amos Cancer Center to collect records to send out to M. D. Anderson Center. We are shooting for an appointment within the next two weeks.
