So portacath surgery should be a piece of cake compared to colon+liver resection. That's good to hear. What kind of surgeon (general, heart, etc...) would do the procedure?
Now if we only find an oncologist first! We found a chinese-speaking oncologist that accepts my mom's insurance, but is out-of-network. What does that mean?
Also, setting up a consult with the oncologist is next to impossible. We called the office 10+ times the past two days, yet we kept getting told to leave a message with the "appointment specialist", with the said specialist never calling us back.
