Hello everyone, my wife and I really need some help in finding a private hospital experienced in groin sentinel lymph node biopsies(SLNB).
Unfortunately she was diagnosed with Vulvar cancer, it is relatively small but still deep enough to require Lymph node surgery. Our local NHS have said they may not offer an SLNB and may want to take all the lymph nodes out immediately. Having done ALOT of reading, this seems to be extreme given the size and therefore we want an SLNB as a first step.
Can anyone reccomend a private hospital or surgeon experienced in these operations or how we go about finding one. Nuffield switch board have been useless so far and we have been getting passed from pillar to post.
any help would be appreciated as we are starting to panic a little bit.
kind regards
Andy
