Prostate Cancer Book

More than 200,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer annually in the United States. Another 5 million men are living with the disease. The good news is that prostate cancer, when detected early, is very curable. And even when it is not curable, it can still be treated, giving a man many more years of life. Author Dr. Arthur Centeno, MD, is a specialist in prostate health and prostate cancer, who understands the anxiety that often accompanies a cancer diagnosis.

The third edition of Prostate Cancer: A Man’s Guide to Treatment answers the questions newly diagnosed patients have. The book is available in paperback and published by Addicus Books.
