I recommend M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas. I have had personal experience there with my daughter and they are still treating her. They have a Melanoma and Skin Cancer department

Good Afternoon,



So sorry to hear about your brother. My husband is being treated at the Moffitt Cancer and Research Center, located in Tampa, Florida. They have a wonderful Melanoma Center. Everyone is very nice and knowledgable in this area. The phone number is 1-800-456-3434. Dr Daud is a good doctor. If you need a surgeon, Dr. Dessureault is a great surgeon.

Be blessed and get busy. Don't accept no for an answer.
