Suggest Treatment For Municous Neoplasm

I have been diagnosed with Municous Neoplasm. Some people say I should see a specialist. A general surgeon told me he would like to do the surgery to remove the ceacum since the tumor was so close to the wall. He has never dealt with this before. Should I see an appendix cancer doctor or is this necessary.? The problem is I live in a rural area and I feel that this surgeon just might like to experiment on me so that he has one of these cases on his resume/books. He did seem knowledgeable but seemed very text book info he was giving me. I have talked with my family doctor and she really had not additional advice as she is not really aware of what Municous Neoplasm is . She did say that it was up to me and she would give me a referral. I am just worried that this general surgeon does not really know what he is looking for and has never dealt with this kind of disease so it's making me uneasy. Is a cancer doctor necessary?
