Mayo, Rochester have medical oncologists whose portfolio will include Prostate Cancer.

They don't have any M.O.'s who specialize in PC only. Not sure of other Mayo facilities.

If you are closer to Mayo, Mankato, MN, they have a fine M.O. who is often referred to by Dr. Kwon. But again, he is not a PC only oncologist.
