<s>[INST] My sister, who I live with, has been diagnosed with a paratyroid tumor. Do you know any surgeons for this in the Phx, East valley area..We live in Gilbert, az. Her Endocrinologist has told her she needs to have the sergery, but the dr. he refered her to cant see her till next month.  Honestly, she can not wait that long. She is so, so sick..  She has Cigna health care.  Thank you so much for any help  Lita King [/INST] Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about what your sister is going through right now. I understand your pains and the urgency to get this problem ad Chat Doctor. Is it all about the surgery or something else is going on? This surgery is not often an emergency and the fact that you sound like her condition is bad because of this tumor makes me wonder if there are any other background problems that have not been checked appropriately. I hope she as be evaluated fully not to attribute every other abnormal symptom to the tumor. However, doctors have not just one person they can refer a client to. Let her doctor know the other one isn't available until next month, and you are not ready to wait so that he can offer you another option. I hope this helps and I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask more questions if need be. </s>
