I feel privileged to help people and families through some of their most difficult times. I think complete cancer care encompasses not only treating the malignancy, but also guiding the patient and their loved ones through the challenging journey.

September is prostate cancer awareness month. Since prostate cancer is the second most common form of cancer in men, starting at age 45 for those at an increased risk and age 50 for those at an average risk, screening options are available to help catch cancer at an early stage. Take charge of your health and schedule with your primary care provider to discuss family history and risk factors to determine if screening is right for you.
