These complimentary services provide a healing foundation for our team of prostate cancer doctors to build on. We offer some of the latest medical advancements, including Provenge, the first FDA-approved prostate cancer vaccine. This prostate cancer therapy is called immunotherapy, because it supercharges the bodies own immune system to fight cancer. Because it utilizes your bodies own resources, it has drastically fewer side effects than chemotherapy or prostate cancer surgery, which are currently used only as a last resort.
Radiation has also advanced significantly and can now be used with impressive levels of precision, reducing the risk of damage to surrounding tissue and organs. Many times the best approach to prostate cancer therapy is a combination of treatments including hormone therapy, immunotherapy and/or radiation used together.
Your options will depend on extent of your cancer, and what areas are impacted most. Be assured that our staff will fully explain your condition and the available prostate cancer treatments available to treat it.
Our support will not end when your cancer is gone. “Survivorship Support” is a crucial step to full recovery.
