Prostate Cancer

Our Prostate Cancer Program

  • Less-invasive scanning procedures.
  • Monthly support group for patients and their loved ones.
  • 219 cases treated in 2014.

Treating Prostate Cancer

Because prostate cancer has a low mortality rate, many men who are diagnosed don't require treatment. Those who do need treatment most often undergo radiation. Your doctor will discuss options with you and decide what's best for your individual diagnosis.

Other Possible Treatments

 

Nurse Navigators

A nurse navigator will work with you through the whole treatment process. She'll help you understand your diagnosis, take care of scheduling, and coordinate with doctors to get you the answers and help you need.

Supportive Care

Our care is comprehensive, with support for your personal challenges that goes beyond the disease.

Just a few ways we help:

New Treatments

We’ve been on the cutting edge of treatment for 20 years, and work to bring in new techniques for our patients.

External Prostate Scans
Traditional scans require an imaging coil inside the body, but our new MR scan is all external, making the procedure much more comfortable for patients.

Research Trials

We offer qualifying patients access to the latest clinical trials.
