I am trying to decide where to get treatment and just went for a 2nd opinion for my breast cancer treatment. I am triple negative, and like the naturopathic approach. Has anyone went to them for treatment? What were your results?

There are no natural remedies that have been proven to do a thing to cancer. However, no hospital in the United States would be allowed to call themselves a cancer treatment center if they relied on naturopathic methods. We practice evidence based medicine in the country and all doctors and hospitals have the same up to date information there isn’t one or two who have or use a special method not used elsewhere. Choose an oncologist you like and trust and who you have good communication with. You are going to have a long relationship with this doctor and rely on him or her for everything. It is important they explain things well and you understand each other as it is the only way you can make good informed decisions. Best wishes.

I live in Seattle and my wife was diagnosed TNBC Stage 2 B. Our oncologist is rated one of the best in the area for treating breast cancer and we are extremely happy with all she has done for us. Her name is Dr. Kristine Rinn and she is with Swedish Cancer Clinic on Madison Street. Here is some information about her: http://www.swedish.org/Physicians/Kristine-Rinn If there is any good that comes with this diagnosis is that TNBC is very responsive to chemotherapy. Do yourself a favor and get this doctor on your cancer team. Here is another site I go to it is the TNBC Foundation: http://www.tnbcfoundation.org/ If you go there I am known as "Scared". Through Swedish Medical Clinic we use Dr. Buffi. He works in coordination with Dr. Rinn and has helped us through all phases of our treatment. I wish you the best, we are today two years since our TNBC diagnosis. We celebrated with her family and looking back it getting the BEST team on your side makes a world of difference. A great radiation oncologist at Swedish is Dr. Astrid Morris. Good luck and please at least interview with Dr. Rinn.
