The provider gave the options and said that the decision was mine as to the plan of care I wanted to take. I agree that the decision is mine but I would have liked to have the provider give me his medical recommendation based on his experience with similar patients as to what he thinks would be the best for me.

Dr. Poffenberger and Dr. Rodger's at Blue Ridge Cancer Center helped to get me through Stage 1 Prostate Cancer in 2007-08. Dr. Poffenberger has also seen me through five kidney stones since then. He is an excellent physician.
