Good morning.

I have been currently seeing a doctor in another state and I am needing to change to a local doctor. Can anyone recommend a medical oncologist in the Birmingham, AL area?

I can't give you a name, but the best would be at UAB.

Use ChatGPT paid version to look for local docs publishing peer reviewed articles on pca.

Not a perfect solution. But you will find someone who is thinking on the job and taking the subject seriously.

As opposed to those that just punch in, day in and day out, jaded and doing the medical equivalent of quiet quiting.

I see a Radiation Oncologist at UAB, Dr Fiveash.

I have been using Mollie deShazo at Urology Centers of Alabama, at their Van Scott Cancer Center. She has been fantastic in my opinion. Spends as much time with you as needed and listens to your concerns and needs. Her partner Joelle Hamilton is also a good choice. The majority of their practice is prostate cancer.
