[johnscats]

hi stage 4 prostate cancer looking at getting a second opinion on a recent scan has anyone used professor Justin stebbin thanks

[NickJoy]

Hello, I have been trying to get an appointment with him but I think he will only return to practice this month.

[johnscats]

Thank you how are you trying to contact him I had an email address but bounced back

[NickJoy in reply to johnscats]

Same thing here I'm afraid - if I get anywhere I will post and let you know.

[johnscats in reply to NickJoy]

Thanks a lot I'll do the same if I find out anything I'm going to try the care oncology clinic he started it

[NickJoy]

Best of luck - I didn't know he was involved there.

Please be careful. There was a disciplinary hearing against him I think. Return to limited practice was allowed under supervision. dailymail.co.uk/news/articl...

I used him briefly for a second opinion in 2915/16 after reoccurrence post RP. My understanding was that he was a general oncologist but who did not specialise in PC so because what I was seeking advice was specialist he referred me to Simon Choudhury who has led a number of clinical trials in PC

I have been recommended to a Dr Mark Tuthill for a second opinion. Google him!

Thanks will do

Chris Parker has been my onco for 8 years . I was given 2 years by a urologist , Chris has been amazing for 8 years to me . If you can use the Marsden then use him . He is now a professor btw

I'm under NHS care/treatment currently by my local hospital in Worthing. Is it possible for me to get referred to a different hospital/oncologist such as Chris Parker at the Marsden? How would I go about doing that? Thanks

[Irun]

yes , just ask . Chris Parker is a professor and is close to trials . He has given me 6 years .
