Recommendation for a post radiation salvage surgeon

Looks like I am having a recurrence and have started to look into options. I will have a scan to confirm the cancer is still confined and want to be ready to move forward. I live in Maryland near Johns Hopkins but will travel anywhere to find and experienced competent surgeon. Would love to hear about your experience.

Only on a consulting basis...I live in Boise, ID.

Even though he is retired, Dr. Patrick Walsh responded to my email inquiries and made firm, unambiguous recommendations about treatment. Google him to find his email.
