Review for The Oral Cancer Foundation, Santa Fe, NM, USA
I found the Oral Cancer Foundation to be the most valuable source of information. Information is current and factual. Far more so than traditional patient referred informational sites. Such as cancer.gov, cdc, webmd, medline, ect. Information obtained from The Oral Cancer Foundation allowed a partnership to develop with our treating physcians. Mutual trust developed when the physicians acknowledged and respected our information sources. We were allowed to be part of the decision making process. Knowing the pros and cons of each step and direction of possible treatment is ultimately the responsibility of the patient. We experienced a positive outcome and cancer free now for 4 years.
