Hi, My husband has been tested for Carcinoid syndrome by his gastroentrologist. He talked about an treatment, Octreotide injection, and that it was a hormonal treatment. If we were to get a second opinion for this condition, what specialty would you recommend. Our Dr. indicated that he has seen very little of this, and a false negative result was possible.
Hi, If you are diagnosed with carcinoid, your specialist will refer you to a team of doctors who have expertise in treating the neuroendocrine tumor. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
