I posted an in detail story about what’s happening, but in short. I need multiple surgeries and I am constantly being canceled by the oncologist for numerous reasons (not financial) for some ridiculous reasons such as dates, locations, etc. no referrals or rescheduling, no nothing, just cancels the surgery and surgeons eventually get annoyed and back out leaving me scavenging for other surgeons.

It's your right to have access to the proper healthcare that's available, and it's your right to be treated like any other patient not like a red headed stepchild because you have a bleeding disorder. God Bless you have a great Christmas and Holiday!

I’ve never heard that or of those?! But I just googled it and found one not close but around 40 miles. Moving forward I’ll definitely look into that! Thanks!

Cannot say enough good about HTC’s. I have dealt with 4 different centers over the years and they have all been great.

Thanks, once again I wasn’t able to use one for this surgery but I have another coming maybe two more so it’s my priority to get to one of those centers! I’m so done dealing with these dr’s!!

Do you have a hemophilia treatment center in your area? Regular hemotologists don't really know how to treat you properly. They are not trained in the many faucets of hemophilia and bleeding disorders. It sounds moronic to me but I found this out recently. I had been going without proper treatment for 6 years because I believed they were the end all.
