Mayo told me- I should see a urologist only if my PSA is >0.4 : otherwise they don’t want ya. In order to see Dr. Cwon, you need a PSA > 4. This was via phone call to Mayo- urology. Hence I don’t qualify so far. Mine is 0.01 less than.

It is true that Dr. Kwon only sees advanced prostate cancer patients, especially those with a major recurrence. BUT you can be seen by another Mayo Rochester urologist if at or above .4 and then transfer care to Dr. Kwon later if necessary. We all hope you never qualify for either, of course!
