Andrew:

Wow: a urologist instead of an oncologist referral: guess his staff misheard his instructions. If you type in "proton therapy" in the search box with the quotes (over to the far right side of your screen ) the threads on that pop up. Basically it sounds very good, and one poster here, Jim who had it in NJ liked it. There is an issue that it may be a little too focused for oral cancer cells so that in might let some cells get away. It was moot for most of us since as Paul noted, very few places have it.
It is scary and frustrating how long it takes from DX to TX
