IMRT in LA area

Can anyone recommend a good radiologist in the LA area that does IMRT? I live in Palm Springs area. They just found a tumor in the transition zone, G7, 16X18mm after 13 biopsies. One doc says that this is the cause of my high PSA, 30. Another doc says it doesn't explain the the total reason for the high PSA.

Hi John

I noticed that your question has not been answered yet.  This is not my area of experience, but everyone here speaks well of Loma Linda.  It is right in your back yard.  They do proton and and other modes as well.  Some consider them to be the best in the whole country.  Do a search on line for more information.  I'm sure someone here will follow up.

Hi John,
IMRT should be covered by all carriers as it is the most common form of radiation therapy. This may not be true for Protons and other forms. Pretty much all the major cancer centers will have the ability to provide for radiation therapy of some sort. UCLA, USC, UCI, City of Hope, and Loma Linda, to name a few.

My experience was at the City of Hope, but that was for surgery. My radiation therapy was performed here is Las Vegas.

My family Doctor was trained at Loma Linda and I have many other friends who live in CA.  It would be the first place any of them would go.  Loma Linda is where the proton beam radiation was pioneered.
