Post Childhood Cancer follow up - Paediatrician Required

[Nique]

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
