I almost went to Loma Linda myself and am in Riverside county. After my research I went to UCLA to be treated on the MRIdian SBRT. My skin wasn’t so much as pierced. It can see all the soft tissue and tracks the prostate at 4-8x a second. Very low side effects, no balloons and high cure rate with that machine. It was super easy and I was back working after 5th treatment. All done in 7 days and back to life. It’s much newer tech, only bother side effects that didn’t last more than 2 weeks. It’s been a year and I feel better than pre diagnosis. Do yourself a favor and talk to UCLA, Steinberg or Kishan. They are pioneers and do much of the research.
