    Hello Sara,
    I do not know anyone at Keck but yes they are highly recommended by everyone.

    Based on experience I can recommend the following, if you are on west side of LA:

    Timothy Daskivich, MD of Minimally Invasive Urology Group
    Cedars Sinai LA, 310-423-4700
    Dr. Daskivich is on teaching faculty at Cedars and is excellent. I have been with him since nearly the beginning of diagnosis 16 months ago.

    If you prefer a woman I recommend Jennifer T. Anger in Beverly Hills, or any of her associates. Specialty in women’s urology and surgery. 310-385-2992. She comes highly recommended.

    I wanted a man for treatment, but I hear great things about her and her colleagues.

    I do think it is important to find the right one for YOU. That may take a couple interviews until you are sure what you want and who you want. So these names are nothing more than my experience. Trust your gut on what and who makes you confident in your care.

    Peace of mind is half of it.

    Not sure about an oncologist, generally speaking. However, if I were fighting bladder cancer one of the first places I would seek out would be USC Keck School of Medicine, dept. of urology.
