Why is my Gyno referring me to an oncologist?

I had an abnormal pap about a year ago CIN 2 was found. I had a LEEP procedure done. My 6 month follow up all was well. 6 months after (now) the abnormal cells have returned.. according to my Gyno same as before. Only this time she is referring to me a gynocologist oncologist. I'm so confused as to why she's sending me to a dr who treats cancer without telling me she suspects there is any cancer. She said it's not cancer, but it's pre cancer, and at this point I don't have much cervix left. Has anyone had anything similar to this, or could possible help explain to me why she's sending me to an oncologist?? My appointment with the cancer center is weeks away and I'm terrified.
