Quality of Life

At the Florida Center for Prostate Care, we believe that all men have a chance to be cured of their cancer and still maintain a healthy quality of life. We feel that it is important to treat both your body and mind. We have a prostate cancer support group forming for both patients and their families to help them adjust to their diagnosis and talk to others sharing the same experience. A web based on-line discussion forum is available too. We are also interested in the potential benefits of complimentary medicine in conjunction with traditional medicine. Information and seminars about the benefits of relaxation, stress reduction, proper diet, massage therapy, and yoga will be available for our patients and their loved ones throughout the year.

We recommend that all men diagnosed with prostate cancer consult with both a Urologist and one of our Radiation Oncologists to learn about the various treatment options available to them. What we feel is most important is that men take time to learn about the disease and feel comfortable with their treatment decision. When you are seen in our Center, our caring staff will review your past medical history and current physical condition and discuss in detail the pros and cons of the various available treatment options.

We have seed implant and IMRT protocols to treat men with both early and advanced stage disease, focusing on not only the best chances for a cure, but also on state-of-the-art techniques to allow you to maintain the best quality of life.
