Product description...

Prostate Cancer Survival Strategies from a Patient/Physician.

Every year nearly a quarter of a million men are diagnosed with prostate cancer. Dr. Randall was one of those men; living through the uncertainties that surround a prostate cancer diagnosis. He chose to write about his experience; both from the perspective of a patient and as a physician. The reader will have a very first person look at the trials and tribulations along each step of the prostate cancer path: diagnosis, treatment options, robotic prostatectomy, post-operative care issues, and perhaps most prominent on the mind of every man dealing with prostate cancer, erectile dysfunction. Dr. Randall not only shares his personal experiences, but also takes the reader behind the physician/hospital curtain to offer a glimpse into the physician-to-physician interplay that most patients never see. Interspersed in the narrative is enough anatomy, physiology, and pathology to facilitate the lay reader’s understanding of the topic without being overdone. But what sets this book apart from others is Dr. Randall’s self-depreciating style that takes a serious topic and makes it humorous. This book is a short and easy read that is a must for anyone wanting to look at life beyond a diagnosis of prostate cancer.
