Thank you.
Hi,
Dana Farber has an excellent reputation. However, if your father has pleural mesothelioma he might want to see Dr. Sugarbaker at Brigham's & Women's also in Boston. My brother had advanced peritoneal mesothelioma so I've done some research and a lot of good things have been said about Dr. Sugarbaker. I'll pray for you and your father. Whatever you do, don't delay as this is usually a fast moving cancer.
