According to the American Cancer Society, over 10,000 new cases of prostate cancer will be diagnosed in Ohio this year. It is the second most common cancer in American men, but one that has a high survival rate thanks in part to the screening and treatment options offered for the disease.
Our very own radiation oncologist and Medical Director, Douglas W. Widman, M.D., wanted to help the men in our community learn more about prostate cancer and the treatment options available to them. Dr. Widman was a recent guest on NBC4 WCMH-TV’s show, Daytime Columbus, where he discussed prostate cancer (risk factors, signs and symptoms, current stats, and diagnosis), how the disease is treated with the CyberKnife® system, patient benefits of the CyberKnife treatment, and why someone should consider choosing Columbus CyberKnife for prostate cancer treatment.
Watch Dr. Widman cover prostate cancer on Daytime Columbus and if you, or someone you love, have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, or you have questions regarding prostate cancer treatment options, please contact Columbus CyberKnife today.
