Arfus,
I’m also being treated at Northwestern in Chicago. Could you please tell me who your surgeon was. Thanks

@tom57 Not sure I replied directly to you, Tom. My husband is being seen by Dr. Kalapurakal a Northwestern - he is a radiation oncologist. He has recommended a lot of treatment: Bicalutamide, Orgovyx, some kind of shot (maybe Lupron) and 44 radiation sessions. Sorry if I'm repeating. Wondering who you were treated by at NW, if you were pleased, and how you are doing now. Thanks.

Hi Tom,
My surgery was performed at Central DuPage Hospital in Wheaton. My surgeon, who also remains as my urologist, is Dr Jonas Benson. I can’t sing his praises enough. He’s done about 5 or 6 robotic prostatectomies per month for 10 years at least. I’m so glad I chose him.
Best of luck to you, and if you need any more info, please let me know.
