Need some input on this. Made appt with new medical oncologist after

he was recommended by radiation oncologist. This was 3 weeks ago.

Woman who took intake info from me not only did not know how to

spell " ductal carcinoma " but did not know what part of the body DCIS

referred to. This bothered me a little. Since I am now back to

work, wanted to coordinate follow-up radiation oncologist visit with

med. oncologist first time visit, so had to call back and change appt.

She said she was mailing out patient packet THAT DAY to complete and

bring in at visit.

That was three weeks ago. TODAY I got the packet. With it was a

card with the appt time--the original day and time, not the time I

changed it to!! This scares me more than a little. Does a really

competent doctor have such a staff--that does not know categories of

cancer and is not on top of appointments??? Should I keep this appt

just because the other oncologist recommended him? I must add that

my cancer counselor commented that some of her patients felt he was a

good oncologist but did not listen much to them, nor very patient

about trying different meds.

Sorry this is so long--this is really bothering me!
