UFHPTI is a great institution for proton radiation. I had Dr. Mendenhall who stated he does over 50% of the prostrate treatments. The faicility is outstanding with 5 gantries all with the lasted proton radiation equipment.

When those who are seeking radiation treatments in Jacksonville area I always refer to UFHPTI as Mayo Jacksonville does not have proton radiation. The treatments as UFHPTI are very professtional prior to, during, and after. The staff is very courteous and friendly. I had the Blue team for my treatments and they did every thing they could to make me feel comfortable. I would end my treatments each day when they gave me my next day arrival time (which was always within 30 minutes of my requested time) saying, "Same bat time, Same bat place, Same bat team. We all would get a good laugh.

When I finished treatments the entire day time blue team came up to me and hugged me saying stop by to say high on your follow ups. I really gave that chime a big swing.

I too had Dr. Mendenhall and Gantry 1 (Blue). Both excellent. I stayed 5 minutes away at Third & Main, which was also safe, very convenient and affordable. All around, a very good experience and highly recommended.
