In my previous posts I've detailed that my husband has been diagnosed with Carcinoid Syndrome. The Carcinoid Foundation [US] lists specialists internationally but does not give any for Australia.

Does anyone know of a specialist for this condition in Sydney preferably? The information on the web suggests that a doctor needs to have experience with this cancer as it is very rare.

Thanks, these forums have been so helpful.

Sending warm good health wishes from Downunder Very Happy

Bethany, have you tried contacting your local hospital? Another source might be your own family doctor. Either of those two sources usually know who is in town and what their particular expertize is. Good luck.
