Can I Ask The Doctor About The Therapeutic Options In My Mother Case Cancer?
Question: My mom was just diagnosed with stage 4b uterine cancer. I want to determine if her current doctor is the person who's going to give her the most likely chance of survival. Do you have any advice on how to make this type of assessment? Are there specific questions that I could ask? Is it unreasonable to ask the doctor point blank why he's the guy for the job?
Brief Answer:
Uterine cancer
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking
Your mother will be seen by medical oncologist as cancer patient.
During the consultation you may ask the doctor about the therapeutic options in your mother case.
Also you may ask the doctor about the prognosis and the new therapeutic innovation for uterine cancer.
Also you may ask about side affects of therapeutic methods used in this case.
In my opinion it’s unreasonable to ask the doctor about his competence in his job.
Best regards
