Because mesothelioma is a rare cancer, not every doctor
has experience in treating this disease. You may consider getting a referral
from your main internist or general physician to find an oncologist who has
handled mesothelioma cases and is familiar with mesothelioma treatment.
Below is a list of physicians and specialists in various states who are
leading the fight against mesothelioma. Also see a list of medical centers.
