Testicular Cancer Experts

The Testicular Cancer Resource Center maintains a list of "Testicular Cancer Experts". It is important to know that each year, in the U.S., there are approximately 8500 cases of testicular cancer diagnosed and according to the American Board of Medical Specialties there are approximately 11,700 board certified urologists. This means that not every urologist may be the most experienced in treating testicular cancer because there just aren't that many cases to go around. Some urologists may only treat a few cases a year or even less. While testicular cancer treatments are fairly straight forward there are instances when seeking care from an "expert in testicular cancer" may be warranted. The Testicular Cancer Society suggests that if you are diagnosed in an advanced stage or you appear to not be responding to initial treatments that you should consider contacting a physician that has expertise in the testicular cancer field.
