As I remember when Moffitt was built in Tampa, there was talk that they were duplicating existing facilities. Soon Moffitt was considered one of the premier cancer research centers in the country. What about MD Anderson, Sloan Kettering (and yes Moffitt is in their league.) Are they duplicating what their local docs and facilities have to offer?

This is so good to hear. I too am a cancer survivor having two surgeries at Sloan Kettering. We have a great Cancer clinic in Memphis that I have ran to when I felt something might be wrong. I presume when I go on medicare, Sloan might not be an option so having a center as described in TV can be a life saving instituition.

I probably would be in TV today not for the cost of medical insurance for a youth under 65.
