Dr. Selection

Deciding on a doctor

First off. I made the mistake of thinking my urologist new what he was doing. The facts were that he did not explain everything. My fault for not knowing what questions to ask. After going through "hell" with the after effects of lupron my family physician recommended an oncologist that wad familiar with my problem. Long story short, radiation oncologist didn't know what to do, should have had the new Dr. all along. Just did not know what questions to ask. I will say to everyone find out what questions to ask and have an oncologist you can trust not a urologist that won't explain things.
