Hear From Our Cancer Survivors

Prostate Cancer Treatment Center - Tacoma, Washington

If you have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, time is critical. Are you hesitant to start treatment because of chemotherapy and prostate surgery horror stories? Cancer Treatment Centers of America offer a variety of prostate cancer treatments that are minimally invasive, and quite effective if cancer is caught before it is too advanced. Even if your cancer has spread to your bones or other organs, chemotherapy itself has improved. In addition to offering the latest in medical science, we practice empowered medicine. That means you will be treated with dignity and respect, given all the facts you need to make an informed choice, and welcomed as part of the decision making process. If you live in Tacoma, Washington, our nearest prostate cancer clinic is located in Seattle, Washington, about 40 miles away.

Depending on the stage of your cancer, a variety of prostate cancer treatments are available including immunotherapy. This cutting edge treatment utilizes your own immune system to fight cancer cells. Your prostate cancer doctors can determine if this treatment will work for you.

Other prostate cancer treatments available include hormone therapy and six different specialized radiation treatments. Radiation treatments such as Calypso CPS for the Body, are able to target cancerous cells with much greater higher precision. This greatly reduces side effects such as erectile dysfunction and incontinence.

In the event that your cancer is aggressive and/or highly advanced, surgery or chemotherapy might be necessary. We offer Metronomic Chemotherapy. This prostate cancer therapy administers chemotherapy in small amounts over the course of several days to prolong drug levels in the blood, rather than using the larger doses found in traditional chemotherapy. This is a more humane treatment which improves the bodies tolerance and reduces the severe side effects.

What truly sets our prostate cancer centers apart is the variety of complementary practices available to our patients. Medical Science now recognizes the impact of the individual in the healing process. Your mental, spiritual and emotional health are all key in your prostate cancer recovery, so in addition to traditional medicine we offer complimentary services including mind/body healing, naturopathic medicine, pain management, spiritual support and nutritional support. Of course the choice is always yours, you are free to utilize only the services you desire and believe are beneficial.
