Most urologist are prostate cancer surgeons. If you want to speak to somebody who is an expert with prostate cancer, you want to work with a a Genito Urinary (GU) oncologist,
When you have a Gleason nine, you want an expert Guiding your treatment. A GU oncologist is the best Doctor to get involved with. They specialize in prostate cancer and in treating it with many different techniques. Most centers of excellence have GU oncologists.
Last week I was in a meeting with someone who had a Gleason nine. He had his surgery 30 years ago. Don’t let anybody tell him how long he’s going to live. No one knows.
