My Mum had this Tumor when I was still in secondary school its been like 7 years now and she went through surgery on the second year out of seventh year then this thing grew back,it was operated in Nigeria on 2006 since then it has been growing little by little,please I need help if you have idea of any hospital in these specific areas that can handle this once and for all please comment... the doctor that handled it the first time is not a Head and Neck specialist and since after that operation my mum went through she's been afraid for 7years and now she has madeup her mind... Preferably we need it to be done in the USA because I am sure they have specialist doctors who can handle Parotid tumor... here's her pic

Am really heartbroken because my mum is suffering a lot please your help is needed Just to Suggest Hospitals with Location and also there website or address will be very helpful.. Thank you and God bless

I would contact University of Texas Anderson Medical Center, Houston, Texas, through their website.
They are highly rated for ENT, as well as being an excellent hospital overall.
There are other good places, but one worry I would have is flying to the US in the winter (Dec-March) and getting around the city in the cold and snow. Texas is in the most southern part of the country.

Keep in mind that they are huge, as are most of the best hospitals. They had over 25,000 admissions last year, as well as 19,000 visits to the ER. It just means dealing with more details. Good luck with your mom. She should be fine!

There is also US immigration to contact for visitor visas and not knowing your situation will even allow that, passports, etc.
You can't just land in the US and go to a hospital.
