I used to live in Riverside so I am familiar with La Jolla.

My RA was Dr. Davis who only treats prostate cancer. Excellent doc and very personable. The SpaceOar procedure took less than 2 hours and the doc that did it has been doing them for about 5 years so he was very experienced. Never felt the SpaceOar once - not even after I slipped and fell on some ice barely an hour after the procedure. I thought I had messed everything up, but they told me it was all good - and it was. The only side effects I had were related to the Lupron. Highly recommend Mayo - Rochester.

Thanks for your helpful post! Glad you had a good experience. I'm concerned about the insertion of the SpaceOar. I've heard of a few complications. By chance, do you recall who did your SpaceOar?
