This is your opportunity to ask Hippocrates a surgical question. It’s a surgical consult–a second, or maybe a first opinion.  My response to your question is not guaranteed as I get too many to choose from. I will pick those that I feel will be of most benefit to many. Please do not include your full name, or identifying information. Also, my response, or opinion, should in no way be construed as medical advice towards your specific medical concern. This is only information that you may find useful in your own research and in discussion with your personal physician or healthcare provider who is really in charge.

Please use the simple contact form to submit your question in the message box in the format of general topic: question.

This is not my real job, so I may not be quick. I will check email about once a week on this account, depending on my schedule.

(ex.) Colon Cancer: Do I need chemotherapy if my lymph nodes are negative?
