Hello. I've been a member of this forum for a while but I mostly just read.
My father has been diagnosed with prostate cancer 7 years ago and he had a prostatectomy right away and salvage radiation therapy two years later.
Right now his PSA has been increasing for about a year and it is now 0.11. We are at a point that we need a very good oncologist to develop a strategy for further treatments that has knowledge about the latest clinical trials as well.
Up to now he has been followed by his surgeon and radiotherapist in Germany, however they both did their job and we now must find an onclogist.
If anyone has a recomandation please let me know.
Thank you.
