One or ten...it should grow over time. There are ads in the paper almost daily where other doctor's practices are adding new ones to their staffing. Fortunately, I have not experienced cancer and definitely hope that I never do. That being said, I would prefer to have numerous options rather than having to travel (Tampa or further comes to mind) or wait forever to get access to the equipment because there is only one facility.

This sounds to me like since the first center has had a monopoly for so long, they just don't want to share. That doesn't say much for patient focus in my book...just money.
