FSR or GK?
« on: May 27, 2006, 04:36:09 pm »
Has anyone out there had either a GK procedure done at Pittsburgh with Dr. Lundsford or FSR done at Johns Hopkins?  I am trying to make a treatment decision and any info that you can give me will be helpful.  Please tell me if you used either of these facilities, the size of your tumor the year of your treatment and what your results have been.  Thanks so much for responding to me---I can use all the help I can get!

First try responding on the forum. I have the same question that you do. I am newly diagnosed and doing lots of research.  Anxious to hear what people have to say, looking at a consultation at Pittsburgh. Thanks and good luck.

Hi janz and vczar and welcome. I cannot answer to either but had cyberknife here in Boston at Beth Israel. There may be notation of what you seek in the forum here for "Info on Physcians". Not sure if you checked there.  Wishing you both well and we're good shoulders around here if you need it.
