University of Washington is supposed to be a great cancer center; so I'd look there.

As far as repairing disk damage; I'm not sure I'd do surgery again if I had to make my choice again. I'm in more pain now after being fused then before. I'm also on more pain medication now then I was. Send me a private message to remind me to grab you links to back forums. Do research before letting her go under. Spines are made to flex- fusing them is unnatural.
