No personal experience here, but I understand Penny Sneed is a radiation oncologist at UCSF who specializes in treatment of breast cancer brain mets and is kind and caring.
I think she mainly uses gamma knife rather than Cyberknife

Why not go to Stanford? A Stanford neurosurgeon invented the Cyberknife. They are I believe the only facility in the country to have two Cyberknives and they have more experience than any facility in the world in using the Cyberknife for treatment of tumors and metastases in sites other than the brain.

Try Googling Cyberknife Stanford.

Good luck
