Welcome. Please post more.
But for the love of god let's deal with the subject matter and not about who's making money from a cancer center that will (hopefully) be a new jewel in an ever expanding health center here in TV.
Listen, everyone on this board knows that my concern is about quality content on TOTV. I'll listen to any side of the argument and many, many times I've said 'Oh, my bad!'.
But this cancer center debate (I think this is the third separate thread on the subject) just completely baffles me. Again I ask anyone who is against any piece of this plan to please explain the downside? I've listened to everyone and I don't see where a downside could come from. I've been a little rude lately in my posts on the subject but from someone like me who works in the health field, I just don't get it.

This thread was started because of an ad in the paper placed by this Boissoneault center. There is no question that the Moffitt Cancer center is a prestigious institution and as Luvit said it is a comprehensive cancer center with oncologists, surgeons pathologists, etc reviewing cases and seeing patients.
The downside to the proposed Moffitt Cancer Center in the villages is that it doesn't appear that it will have all that. They only keep referring to the radiation equipment and the newspaper said the other day we would get a radiation doctor a physicist and somebody else but that the local medical oncologists would stay.
I don't have a problem if we get a mini Moffitt Cancer center in the villages with all the specialties, but if we are only getting a radiation doctor with his or her support staff then that's not what everyone here is being led to believe that they are donating for.
