Prostate Cancer

Advanced care for prostate problems.

Prostate problems strike 90% of all men over age 50. Last year alone, more than 10 million men were touched by prostate cancer. The most common symptom of prostate cancer is no symptom at all, so if you are 50 or older you should be screened each year. If you are African-American or have close relatives with prostate cancer, your screening should start at 40.

““When I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, my world was turned upside down. RTR Urology put things into perspective. They educated me on the treatments available: surgery, radiation, brachytherapy, cryotherapy, hormones. My health isn’t what it used to be, and I knew surgery was the wrong choice for me. I was happy to learn that I still had a great chance to cure my cancer with radiation seed implants. It was done in an afternoon, and I had nearly no pain. I continue to visit RTR Urology every few months, and my cancer is in remission.”
