Dr. Finger believes that patients should know each doctor's track record. They are interested in surgical success rates and what happens to patients with similar or equivalent tumors. Dr. Finger agrees, so he started averaging together the outcomes of patients that returned to his office for follow up. Plus, his fellows add this data in near real-time to his web site where it can be viewed. Just go to http://eyecancer.com and on the upper right corner click, "Dr. Finger's Success Rates. There you will be directed to information about choroidal melanoma, iris melanoma, and squamous carcinoma patients. Specifically, how often the eye and vision can be saved as well as how often the patient should expect a local cure.
