      Can anyone recommend a melanoma specialist in the St. Louis area?  My current doctor (Linette) is leaving the city and I'm not certain of other resources.

          Randy, you don't give any indication of your status. If it was me and it was melanoma that had progressed, I would be going to Jason Luke at University of Chicago if I lived in St. Louis.

          Best wishes.

              I'm stage IV.  Have been NED for 7 years.  My St. Louis doc was at the top of field.  I'll wait to see who they bring in before I make a move to Chicago.
