Doctors and Clinics for GIST
This wiki page is for patients and caregivers to list the doctors who have treated them. As your input helps us to develop this page further, it will provide convenient links to more physicians and clinics. If you would like to have your doctors listed, please contact Donna (Bbr950) via this link.
Choosing a doctor involves both identifying a physician with adequate knowledge AND finding one with whom you have rapport and can establish a working relationship. Here is an essay in the free--access journal The Oncologist that describes one patient's journey with her oncologist.
A Delicate Dance: Negotiating the Doctor-Patient Relationship During Cancer Treatment, by Janine Mariscotti, from The Oncologist, Vol. 13, No. 11, 1205-1206, November 2008.
