Hi @Vix1963. I had my surgery done at Frankston public hospital and was very happy with my surgeon. I didn’t get a choice in the public system. I saw a different one at my initial appointment to whom did my surgery. I didn’t need to have chemo but had radiation at Frankston private hospital which didn’t cost me a cent as I was a public patient referred there. I could have chosen to get treated at Moorabbin hospital where I was diagnosed but chose Frankston for convenience. When you’re going daily for radiation the closer the better I think. They do chemo at Frankston too.
Good luck in your decisions.
