I am new to this site but I see many people getting advise from Constantine. I have listed my mothers condition on the new members forum under "words of wisdom". I'm having a very very difficult time finding an aggressive doctor in the Northeast Ohio area. Everyone we met with seems to want to follow "standard" bc teatment. I thought Constantine might know of someone in this area that is more on the aggressive side when fighting tnb.
Thanks

I think Constantine posts on:
www.nosurrenderbreastcancerhelp.org/ I haven't seen any direct posts from him on this site, rather people who go on both sites who sometimes quote him here. |

Daughter, you can e-mail him directly edge@evidencewatch.com You can ask him for both oncologist suggestion and what he knows about treatment options for your mom's rare condition. |

Daughter,
I am in Cuyahoga County and go to the Cleveland Clinic. However, at University Hospitals there is Dr. Barr, who is doing research on TNBC. He's the one with the clinical study about to start up for the triple negative vaccine that has been the topic of conversation for a few months. If I were choosing an oncologist now, knowing what I know, I would try to get him.
Here's the conversation, and somewhere on the web I saw a video of an interview with him.
Here's a video I found, but this was before he had received funding for his trial. I know there is a later one on one of the major news shows somewhere.
