Hi Ava11, I'm not sure of your situation. I had proton beam therapy at Phoenix, but it was over 5 years ago. When I decided to use proton therapy, I contacted them to be a patient. They requested my biopsy, which was 4+4 Gleason score. After they got the results, I was accepted within a week and had an appointment within another week. They did MRI to ensure the cancer was contained in the prostrate. After it was confirmed no spread, I began ADT and proton therapy in 2 months. I just finished my 5 year checkup and PSA is >.10 and in good shape.

My experience with Phoenix Mayo is the most knowledgeable, professional and client oriented staff I've ever had with any medical facility. I can't speak to the situation now, but I would try and use them again.

Thank you Waynen. Things are finally moving to get an appointment at California Proton center. That would be my first choice. I may use Phoenix Proton center for second opinion.
