This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer. There are only four rules:
No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Re: Medical Oncologist not necessarily = or Greater than Radiation Onocologist
Still plan out putting out all the clinical data I have at some point and my thoughts, but just spoke with a relative who's husband has significant BPH and she recommended their Urologist who I've often felt had similar "whole body/person treatment goals" that I'm looking for with dad. Turns our he's written a book "The Decision" and Terry linked his worksheet for treatment decisions...
I'll be calling on Monday to schedule an appointment as over the next several years, I'm sure dad will need a urologist of some type since his original one retired. Can't tell you how excited I am to find this resource locally without having to travel to Atlanta over an hour away.
