Previously someone posted about Dr. Petrylak in Ct. and I would like to try him as

I am now using someone in NY City and the commute is getting to be too much from

Orange County. Can anyone tell us about him, are you happy with him , what therapies does he recommend and is he easy to talk to.

I have never been to see Dr, Petrylak but At One time I was a Patient of Dr. Sartor in Boston, I consider Sartor to be one of the greatest researchers of our Time, When He was leaving , I asked who I could go to that Had his knowledge, He replied that He did not think he had anything on Dan Petrylak. Go to google scholar and type his name to see the oodles of studies he has done on Prostate Cancer, from the video above a very smart Man. Others may have already been to him, When I become clinical post chemo I am considering him as a possibility.

I see Dr Petrylak and have seen him since my recurrence (over 10 years ago). He is now at Yale, but does see patients at Greenwich Hospital one day a week. He is excellent, knows his stuff. He is open to considering treatment based upon research if you raise the concerns with him. Excellent clinician.

If you do see him feel free to use my name.

A big Thank You for your recommendation. I just saw Dr. Petrylak (also mentioned your name) for the first time and was extremely happy and very impressed.
