Yes, prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers, and all large medical centers see and treat large numbers of prostate cancer patients.

My daughter goes to the VA also, Any and all treatment you have will be continued by the VA where ever you go because they will transfer all your records to Florida. The only thing is, if you ever decided to get treatments outside the VA, they won't pay for it. That's what I hate about the VA. You should be alright, I'm sure the VA doctors in Pensacola are just as good as where you are coming from. Good luck, Hope you feel better soon.

You don’t mention who “they” are? If you want to be treated elsewhere make sure your doctors know and set up an appointment with a radiation oncologist in the city you are moving to and have your records sent before you arrive. This way there will be little down time.
