Urologic Second Opinion Service

We’ll review your treatment for prostate, bladder, kidney and testicular cancer

Urologic Cancer Second OpinionIf you have a urologic cancer, you have a better chance and more options today than at any time in the past. But some treatments still have risks of infertility, impotence or incontinence. You can be sure that your quality of life is a major concern of our Urologic Cancer Second Opinion Service.

In a single visit, you will meet with each member of the team:
  • Urologic oncologist
  • Urologist
  • Radiation oncologist
  • Medical oncologist
  • Cancer nurse
The team will meet with you individually, make sure they understand your concerns, and explain your options. You'll also receive a written recommendation. That's important, because you'll probably want to think things over before making a decision. You can call your nurse at any time if you have questions later.
