      I am sorry that cannot help you with the oncologist as I am from Indiana, however I have completed surgery and treatment for cholangiocarcinoma. If you need anyone to talk to, please feel free to contact me. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

      I went to the University Medical Center in Tucson for my cancer surgery. My surgeon was one of the best in the world for gynecological cancers. There are probably other great oncologists there for your type of cancer. The doctors and nurses were really great there.

      I did a search on the Tucson University Medical Center website. Here is the name and biography of the oncologist that came up for Bile Duct cancer: http://azcc.arizona.edu/profile/rainer-gruessner .

    Oh No (Diagnosed): Today my doctor called me and I had to say three times "come again". He said my biopsy was positive and I had bile duct cancer. It is so rare I know nothing about it, my husband is dieing, and I feel like my heart is racing and my team at the UMC in tucson AZ will speak to me this week but I am so unkowledgeable about this...pls. help me.
