Some doctors really do like the tests because they can differentiate between those that need ADT and those that don’t. Other doctors are just not up on what’s going on as much. The same thing is a problem with medical oncologist. If they have not been trained as Genito urinary oncologists Then they don’t specialize in prostate cancer and don’t keep up with everything going on. They do work with all different types of cancers so they can’t specialize.

I know one guy who has only a Gleason 3+4, but he has large cribriform. His decipher and Artera tests are both very low. He is now in his second year, waiting for treatment because he doesn’t feel he needs it yet. He has seen multiple specialists and they all agree with him, even Dr. Epstein Who specializes in second opinions of biopsies.

Good to hear you are seeing other doctors and can probably get the tests from one of them.
