PA vs Dr doing Biopsy

I had 4 transrectal biopsies while I was on active surveillance (2012-2021); the urologist did each of those. (I have no idea about who does transperineal biopsies these days.)

When you indicate “… and remain the quarterback thru the Journey”, what does that mean?

@brianjarvis
probably wrong description but PA would be my main contact, not the decision maker of treatment, but PA implied Dr.s remain in background until the biopsy is done and then treatment decisions are made.
I also had a transrectal 2020 and would not look forward to another.
