Background

Neuro-oncology generally does not round on people inpatient at Presby. They may round inpatient at SHY but they never admit anyone, even there. 

New Patient Follow-up

Generally when we say "email neuro-onc" we just mean email the secretary (Linda Johnson) with the attendings (Drappatz, Rich, Mantica) copied to ensure someone is not lost.
