September is nationally recognized as Prostate Cancer Awareness month. Other than skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men. The latest American Cancer Society estimates indicate that this year in the United States, approximately 192,280 new cases of prostate cancer will be diagnosed, and 27,360 men will die of prostate cancer. It's vitally important for men to discuss prostate screening with their physicians.

 

What would you do if you, or a male loved one, were diagnosed with prostate cancer? And what if the attending physician presented several options for treating it?

 

 

 

Mark had that situation and he needed help. So he contacted Best Doctors® to determine which treatment would be most effective.

 

Through Best Doctors, a world-renowned cancer expert reviewed Mark’s case and found that the cancer was more aggressive than originally thought. Based on this new information and recommendations from the expert, Mark and his doctor decided the best option was to undergo radiation and hormone treatment. Now, Mark is receiving the best treatment for his specific situation and is on the road to recovery.
