I have medicare so the insurance is not a problem. I tried to call Mass General and got a runaround. If possible, would you share her contact info? Thank you.

Dr. Hobbs has been my MPN doctor for a few years now. My initial appointment with her was by Zoom. My prior hematologist connected me with her. However, I live in Boston, and she is already within my health plan network. You probably need to check with your health insurance on how out-of-state/second opinion appointments are handled.

The best steps to take would be:

- Ask your current doctor for a referral to an MPN specialist
- Search for MPN specialists at major cancer centers or academic medical institutions in your area
- Look into telehealth options, as many specialists now offer virtual consultations

It's always worth advocating for yourself to get the most specialized care possible for managing your MPN!
