I know some guys who've had it. It is important that you understand the risks of this experimental therapy. Read this first:

Marks is my urologist too. But how many focal cryos has he done? If, after reading that, you still want focal cryo, I suggest you see Duke Bahn in Ventura (or whoever has taken over for him if he has retired) who has done more than anyone else.
I suggest you speak to Amar Kishan at UCLA about SBRT too before deciding. They have a clinical trial of focal SBRT too, but it has many of the same drawbacks.
You really should get second opinions from (a) an sbrt specialist, and (b) an oncologist.
Not what you're looking for?
