      Hi Libby,

      I don't see a doc in VA on either (primary or systemic) of our OM specialists lists. These lists and other resources can be found on our OM resources page. Your friend is welcome to email our OM program staff at cureom@melanoma.org

      We are hosting our annual OM patient symposium on March 4-6 in Atlanta that she may be interested in as well. 

      As always, I can be reached at education@melanoma.org or 202-742-5945 if she wants to speak with someone here. 

      Hope you are well,

      Shelby – MRF
