Second Opinions from the University of Colorado Cancer Center Thoracic Oncology Program
The University of Colorado Cancer Center is nationally recognized as a center for second opinions regarding all aspects of lung and other thoracic cancers.
"When we came to Dr. Camidge for a second opinion, he helped us through a difficult explanation of my rare cancer. He was a wonderful light in my darkness."
Lisa P.
If you need a second opinion, please contact us.
A medical oncology doctor who specializes only in lung and thoracic cancers will meet with you to discuss your case and review your test results.
The medical oncologist will then meet with a group of other doctors (our multidisciplinary care team), who have additional areas of expertise. They will review your case during their weekly Thoracic Tumor Board meeting to determine the best treatment.
