It's funny how different doctors work differently. I did my chemo privately and my radiation publically. As my BC was triple negative my medical oncologist told me he didn't need to see me any more as there was no more treatment for me (no hormone treatment). Because of this my radiation oncologist continues to see me. At the moment every 6 months. I am really thankful as she gives me a thorough examination. checking under my arms etc as well feeling for lymph nodes etc. I see my surgeon every 6 months also. They try and time it so I am seeing them apart from each other that way I see someone every 3 months. I had a recurrence 6 months after my initial treatment finished and I think they are extra cautious because of this.
