I don't have a personal referral, but I have family that still lives in the Lubbock area (I was born and lived near there for several years). My research came up with this info, maybe you could call each one and they could further help you. Best wishes and welcome to Texas! ☀️🌻

Scroll down about 4 times and click on "talk with a patient navigator".
You can speak to trained Patient Navigators in the MMRF Patient Navigation Center at 1-888-841-6673 who can connect you with a myeloma specialist, answer questions, help you learn more about clinical trials, and provide the right resources to help in your fight against myeloma.

I tried searching for a MM specialist in Lubbock, but none showed up. Maybe a patient navigator would have better info.
