Hi,

My dad 72 y.o, has just been diagnosed with PCa on Gleason 7 and his last month PSA is 19.
He has seen a urologist in Melbourne and suggested treatment was Laparoscopy or Robotic Laparoscopy.

He would like to have an aggresive treatment, but tossing between few type of treatments (open or lap or robotic lap) also tossing between private or public hospitals... due to financial concern and doctors said similar outcome.

Has anyone had an experience of any kind of treatment for PCa in Melbourne?

Appreciate any help!
