The initial appointment includes:
- A comprehensive evaluation by the specialists, including the surgeon, the medical oncologist, and the dermatologist, on the same day
- A full multispecialty team conference to discuss each individual and develop a comprehensive recommendation for the plan of care and treatment
- Presentation and discussion of the treatment plan to the patient and family immediately following the multispecialty team meeting
- Written treatment plan given to patients before they leave the appointment
One-day treatment plan
Patients are seen and evaluated by a team of melanoma specialists during a single visit. The pathology and radiology images are reviewed and treatment options are discussed with a full panel of experts. At the end of the visit, the patient receives a personalized plan for any additional testing or recommended treatment. The anxiety and uncertainty patients and families face while waiting days or weeks between individual physician appointments is eliminated, and treatment can begin sooner.
