Skip, I wish had the name of a great surgeon to provide to you, but I want to say I am sorry to hear of your DX and will keep you in my prayers for an excellent treatment and recovery program.

If in your position, I would probably consult with Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa. I would want as much knowledge and technology on my side as I could muster. If additional treatment is required following surgery, it is possible you could do follow-up in The Villages.
