I suspect that an oncologist would be able to get the PSA and PSMA/PET. UCLA has a genuinely fine program. You could call Dr. Wayne Brisbane 310-794-7700. A video consultation won't interfere with payment for more consultations with different doctors. Brisbane is an oncologist I can recommend because he's smart, especially cooperative, congenial and patient oriented.
Don't wait for MDX results because you'll end up waiting for an appointment. The results will be in before you can get in. You don't want a surgical oncologist or radiation oncologist, just a basic oncologist.
Ask Brisbane about the microscopy ultrasound if you decide to contact him.

Hope you don't have cancer!

Thanks for the reply. While I am waiting for Confirm MDX result, I think I will at least call Dr. Brisbane's line to inquire about the scheduling timeline and process.

I see another UCLA Health second biopsy web page.

It is targeted for patients with previous benign biopsies. I wonder if this is the same procedure by Dr. Brisbane.
