It sounds very odd and unprofessional to have such an experience. First of all, every question would be in your records. You should receive records in an App with the hospital and your doctor or at every visit. I can’t tell from your description but that would not happen at a medical facility with experienced oncologists and information about research, clinical trials and all information for patients. Hospitals all have patient support departments where you can contact to address your concerns. I am only guessing, but telling this assistant that you are part of a class action lawsuit could explain her conduct as that complicates your diagnosis unless they knew you had exposure to the chemical when first seen.

I would read all your oncologists notes for every visit.

Glad to hear you found another team for July.

And the questions you asked can be a mouse click away. This is your body, your illness and you deserve to educate yourself about your life.

Gena, I am so sorry that happened to you! How awful 😣. Ask for a different team and explain why. Hopefully all is better for you now. I believe it’s really important to have a good rapport with your Oncologist. 🍀

Wow that person you were talking to should not have that job . Go in get your records from them and get an appointment with another oncologist

Gena2,
I'm so sorry that happened to you. I would absolutely get a second opinion/Dr. That was inexcusable!! Kelly

That's right! They work for us! I fired four of them until I finally got an Oncologist who was not only good, she had a positive outliok
