bacterial infection developed in my prostate following biopsy
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: 57 minutes ago | Replies (5)Comment receiving replies
I was assessed by a PA and another PA performed the biopsy. I thought this was unusual so I questioned the biopsy prep team and they told me is was common at MC Rochester. My wife wants to file a complaint with Mayo. I’m thinking about it. Any thoughts

You definitely were not treated right by the people that refused to have you come in when you were having pain after the biopsy.
I can’t believe you’re only seeing physicians assistants, This is a case where you should’ve contacted the physician and even called Mayo and made your case vocally about the pain you were having.
With prostate cancer cases, we have learned that we have to be proactive about our treatment. That means telling the doctors (or PA) that you want something rather than can you have something. You need to be really emphatic when you’re not being treated right.
Yes, complain to Mayo about this, It was definitely incompetently handled.
