5.0 out of 5 stars What your Doctor May not Tell you About Prostrate Cancer:by Glenn Bubley,MD, January 23, 2009
This review is from: What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About(TM) Prostate Cancer: The Breakthrough Information and Treatments That Can Help Save Your Life (Paperback)
Superb book, clearly written and extremely helpful to someone like myself with prostate cancer. As a physician and patient, I was impressed by Dr. Bubley's common sense and perspective. When warranted, he offers hope but not false hope .His style makes the reader feel as if he is in the room talking to you. This book is a wonderful achievement not just for the author but most of all the patient fortunate to read it.

This review is from: What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About(TM) Prostate Cancer: The Breakthrough Information and Treatments That Can Help Save Your Life (Paperback)
Nothing puts fear into one's heart like your doctor's words "I am sorry to be the one to tell you this, but you have cancer."
Even more fearful is that not all specialists take the time to understand his or her patient's medical condition to provide adequate information. Making wise decisions about your treatment is very difficult when medical professional, in whom you place your health and life, do not provide the viable options. That was true for me. I chose to study this disease for 6 months (with my doctor's consent) before making my treatment decision. This book, along with a couple of others on the topic, really made the difference for me. If you think you may have prostate cancer, or even if it's in your family history, you must read this book.
