NYC area hospital recommendations?

Can anyone recommend/not recommend New York City hospitals for prostate cancer treatment and/or surgery?

Sloan-Kettering shows up in many “best of” polls. I have a good history with Mount Sinai for other issues

I’m particularly interested in opinions on these two particulary and NYC generally

  1. Hi . I can't personally speak to them, but I know the ones you mentioned have excellent reputations. My father-in-law was treated at Columbia. He had a combination of Cyberknife and traditional radiation. He is doing well and I know they are considered one of the leading institutions for Cyberknife. You might be interested in this page from the National Cancer Institute listing the comprehensive cancer centers: https://www.cancer.gov/research/infrastructure/cancer-centers/find. Hopefully others will chime in with their experiences. Best, Richard (ProstateCancer.net Team)

    1. Richard - thank you.
