      For months people have been asking this question.   His office does not tell you that he's been gone since the end of May until you actually arrive there for your appointment.  In the beginning patients were told that he was "taking a little time off and letting another doctor see patients."  But it has been five months now since he has been at the Angeles clinic and there is no forwarding address.  Where is he?  His medical liscence has not been revoked.  No hint of scandal has made it to the newspapers or the MRF and its associates.  W

      Any info would be appreciated.

                  I just called the telephone number listed for Cancer Institute Medical Group, Inc and the answering service said it was "ANGELES CLINIC".

                  Looks like Dr. O'day is still missing. Please post if anyone know where is is practicing.

                  Thanks,

                    As far as I am aware, and for reasons I can't verify, he is on extended leave.

                    Even though his bedside manner is not as pleasant, you can still see Dr. Hamid.

                      When I called to make an appointment, the office did confirm that Dr. O'day has LEFT Angeles clinic & will not be returning.

                      Please post if anyone know where Dr. Oday is now practicing.

                      Thanks

                                        I am curious too where he is at. Must be something serious. For a doctor to not be in touch with his patients and with this much silence maybe its political or a dispute. I know big corporate companies when a person leaves you can not be in touch with clients for a certain amount of time. Another example Conan O'Brien with NBC suit could not do anything for 6 months.Anyone that is upset, do not take it personal like he did not care. Keep positive with your inner energy.

                                                Hi,

                                                I am pleased to announce my new practice location. I will officially be seeing patients beginning May 1 but will see patients on a case by case basis if it is medically important to be seen before then. Please feel free to forward my contact information to anyone who needs to reach me. Please request a copy of your medical records from The Angeles Clinic and they can then be transfered to The Beverly Hills Cancer Center's state of the art electronic medical record. The Beverly Hills Cancer Center(BHCC) can help facilitate this for you.

                                                The BHCC is 1 stop shopping with patient care, imaging including MRI, PETCT, Breast MRI, bone scans etc., a beautiful infusion center for chemotherapy, radiation oncology, surgical oncology, full lab, research clnical trials, psychosocial support and nutrition. A more formal letter will come soon but I know many of you have been waiting to see me for some time. I would be honored to resume your care. I look forward to reconnecting with you soon.

                                                Warmest regards,
