... and surrounds. Driving distance is not as important as having someone who knows what he is doing.

Maybe time to try someone other than a Urologist at this point. Have not had very good experiences so far. Maybe a Medical Oncologist?

I have completed my primary treatment and am now on follow up.

We can't say enough good things about our current doc and his team. We've been with Bryan Wong at Banner MD Anderson in Gilbert AZ. We've been with him for about 1 1/2 years. He fought had for us to get on Pluvicto. His team is amazing and caring. Good luck to you groundhogy.

MD Anderson in Gilbert and Sun City. I see Dr Dave in Sun City, she's very good. Also the Mayo is in North Phoenix if you're in that area. All three areas have very good oncologists.

Docs You Would AVOID?

That info might be just as important. We have all seen multiple docs at this point. I don’t want to call up the doc you guys already left.

Mayo doesn't take my insurance.

I just changed to mayo. My major issues were that my urologist wasn't progressive enough and there was no communication among the team. I've been impressed w the mayo team so far
