Yes, Halo in Indian Wells. May 8 2024. Dr Feller and Dr Herz. Getting ready for my 3 month PSA follow up. 1 leison ablated. Total time in Halo about 6 hours. On the table about 3 hours, actual ablation time about 15 minutes. Toughest part catheter for 3 weeks. Dr Herz is excellent, but cautious. In 6 weeks following I was back to normal. Zero I mean zero side effects

Hello Sambon, it sounds like you had a great experience. I'm considering this procedure at Indian Wells as well. With local anesthesia, did you feel nothing, I assume? Do you need to stay very still during the 15 minute ablation due to the precision required? Also, if you're from out of town, can you get your PSA done locally where you live? I would have to travel from Scottsdale if I have this done, not that it's a long travel. I'm also considering Tulsa procedure and proton therapy, doing my research. Thanks for the good words on Dr. Feller and Dr. Herz. Best to you!
