What to expect on your first visit:
During your first visit to First Coast Oncology, you will see a radiation oncology nurse who will review your basic medical history. Next, you will see one of our board certified physicians, who is a physician specialist in the field of radiation oncology. Dr. Ackerman, Perkins or Ossi will review your medical records, x-rays, scans, any biopsy results, and all laboratory results, and will perform a medical evaluation and exam. After reviewing this information, your physician will set a course of individualized treatment.

This evaluation period normally takes about an hour, although longer periods may sometimes be required.
