Can anyone help with a specialist regarding breast cancer in louisiana?
I am looking for a referral for a really good breast cancer specialist in and around the New Orleans Or Baton Rouge area. I found a lump in my breast and I have been to the doctor and not very confident in what their findings from the altrosound. My sister ask me to post this.

Im not sure if this doctor does breast cancer, but he is an oncologist and is or was the head of pennington cancer center at the Baton rouge General. His last name is Castine. He treated my best friends father for esophageal cancer that spread to the liver.

The Louisiana Cancer Research Consortium is probably your best bet. You can be seen at either LSU or Tulane. I've linked their page with both contacts so you can choose the one most convenient to your location. Both are excellent Medical Centers, and you will get the benefit of not only having a great attending doctor, but also having many other brilliant minds reviewing your case. In the event that it may be necessary, a teaching facility also has access to the latest research and clinical trial information and availability. Best wishes to you
