      Hi, 

      Jennybaum has posted below asking for advice AND a specialist recommendation for her mum as treatment so far has not been as would be expected. Has anybody got personal recommendations please ?

      Many Thanks

      Deb

          I know Wolfram Samolowski is a melanoma specialist in Vegas.  He used to be in my area before moving to Vegas.  He was well thought of here but I haven't heard much about him lately – at least here.  Mountain West states don't seem to have as much representation here.

              Thank you- 4 months arguing about radiation seems crazy- Jenny's mum needs someone reliable …and sooner rather than later…

                      I'm not sure how current this link is, but as Janner mentioned, Dr. Samlowski is a melanoma specialist in Las Vegas. The link includes his bio info, as well as what insurance is accepted by the cancer center he works at. https://www.healthgrades.com/physician/dr-wolfram-samlowski-yqvt9

                          Thanks Niki. Navigating treatment is sometimes much harder than it ought to be….and someone who knows what they are doing is priceless.
