Post Childhood Cancer follow up - Paediatrician Re...

Join

Hi My daughter was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma in 2005 at only 2.5 years of age. Her condition now is stable and she is nearing the end of her monitoring phase. I am excited that we are now reaching this point as it encourages us that we might have finally beaten this dreadful disease. At the same time, I am nervous about the fact that after January next year she will not be getting monitored by the oncologists. I am wondering if anyone knows of a good paediatrician in Melbourne who can monitor my daughter, to try and ensure she remains cancer free, and free of any after-effects of the intense and prolonged chemotherapy she endured. Thanks Nique
