How to Find a Mesothelioma Doctor
Mesothelioma is unlike any other form of cancer due to its long latency period and the circumstances in which people contract it. That’s why finding a doctor you can trust is critical.
The Importance of Finding the Right Mesothelioma Doctor
Mesothelioma cancer tends to spread quickly, so treatment is a time-sensitive process. The earlier a diagnosis is made, the better your prognosis is likely to be. A doctor who specializes in treating mesothelioma can ensure you receive access to excellent care and cutting-edge treatments you need. Specialists understand the risks and side effects of mesothelioma treatments and are best equipped to maximize your survival time and help you manage your symptoms.
How to Choose the Right Doctor
Not only is it imperative that you choose a doctor who specializes in your type of mesothelioma — pleural, peritoneal, pericardial, or testicular — it’s also critical that you find a doctor you can trust and communicate with effectively. Be sure not only to evaluate your doctor’s expertise but also to get a sense for whether you feel comfortable in their care.

How Mesothelioma is Diagnosed
Mesothelioma is notoriously difficult to diagnose in its early stages. For one, the disease doesn’t appear in most patients until decades after exposure to asbestos. Also, symptoms of mesothelioma are easily mistaken for those of other conditions. If your doctor suspects you may have mesothelioma, they should refer you for mesothelioma testing.
Generally, a mesothelioma diagnosis follows a series of events:
- You start to experience symptoms
- Your primary care physician discusses your symptoms with you, performs preliminary tests, and refers you to an oncologist for further evaluation
- Your oncologist makes a final diagnosis and helps you develop a treatment plan
