What doctors/hospitals offer this technique? I am highly doubtful that this is not offered by my current provider and have already scheduled an appointment with Johns Hopkins for a second opinion with full support of my current doctor. I noted the above caveat about assuming a center of excellence such as JH does not guarantee that this is an option.
Where has anyone had this done?

Hoag Hospital Newport Beach, CA. The capital investment required by the hospital to purchase the newer single port and the new HIFU is substantial and Hoag has invested in both. The hospital is in Orange County by the beach and has quite wealthy patients that require their own level of care, one being the latest. I heard somewhere wealthy donors have provided substantial capital towards latest innovative care across the healthcare fields at the hospital. Once they have it, it becomes available to all us commoners.
