Hi!

We’re beginning to research facilities for second opinions, next step guidance to supplement what we’re learning from our local doctor. My husband is BRCA2 positive, had a prostatectomy, salvage radiation and now his PSA is starting to creep back up. I know it’s too early to take additional treatment steps but we want to get set up with a care center that provides the best/latest treatment options, guidance etc. We’re from a smaller town and this feels bigger than that. Google searching has my head spinning! Are there west coast cancer center recommendations that you’d recommend? Thank you!
