Hi @LisaO, I sought out a second oncologist which meant there was a gap between my mastectomy and axillary clearance and starting chemo of almost 2 months (so about 2-3 week delay), which, as it was a good 5yrs ago now, I guess means it made very little difference in the grand scheme of things. If you feel more confident with another oncologist then I'd definitely not be too concerned as you are going to be working with them for quite a while and need to feel that you have a good partnership. Best wishes, Jane xx
