Super impressed by Dr. Bochner and entire MSK staff! So much so that my wife and I made decision on the spot to move my case to Dr. Bochner.

He scoped me and said no growths seen. Urinalysis, blood tests, and CT scheduled Tuesday. He decided to scope me while I was there. Night and day difference from scope I had in April. That one made me see stars. This one was very tolerable.

If all tests OK, then BCG for 6 weeks. Something I was waiting 3 months for in Rochester with no availability.

My wife and I are so impressed by Bochner. He and his resident know my current MD who is highly thought of in the community. But he is close to retirement and I feel much better having someone like Dr. Bochner and MSK on my team.

He's even having my biopsy tissue sent to MSK so they can take a second look.

What a class operation! As busy as they are, they got more done in less than a week than I've had anywhere else. Not even close.
