You need to speak to a Surgeon (urologist who does surgery) and a radiation oncologist. Both of them have about the same results though surgery may make more sense if you’re young (below 70).
Just going to a cancer clinic may be a mistake. You want to go to a place that specializes in prostate cancer? Mayo Clinic is one of them. Prostate cancer is not easily handled by just a clinic, You want a Genito Urinary Oncologist Handling your case if it is complex, A place like Mayo has top notch oncologist that specialize in prostate cancer.

Others have mentioned that my comments about a “cancer clinic” May not clearly define what the word clinic implies. Yes, Mayo is the Mayo clinic but they are a COE. You want to make sure when you’re going to a cancer clinic That they are a center of excellence not just a “cancer clinic” Prostate cancer requires a certain amount of expertise in that area.
I definitely should’ve been more clear in my recommendation.
