Hello. My dad has recently been diagnosed with prostrate cancer and has just made the decision to have surgery to remove it. They have been told they are being referred to Swansea.
I keep being told that who does the op is very important in terms of outcome, but am having more trouble finding recommendations for surgical centres. My dad's GP who has a urology background, has said they need to go to a busy centre as they will be very practiced in the procedure, and mum and dad are presuming Swansea is busy as it is the centre for Wales.
All of us are floundering a bit really and I would appreciate any input, thanks.
