Treatment

The treatment of prostate cancer includes cryotherapy, surgery, hormonal therapy, chemotherapy or radiation. Sometimes combination of these treatments is required to be done to manage the prostate cancer well. The treatment usually depends on whether the cells are limited to the prostate or spread over to the nearby organs. And the other factors for choice for the treatment are PSA level and Gleason score.

PSA is Prostate Specific Antigen test. It is performed to identify the asymptomatic tumors and understand whether they have lethal potential or not, for the patient. Gleason score is done to provide the staging of albeit crude tumors to determine the prognosis. The score is calculated from grade 1 to grade 5, where grade 1 is the indication of well differentiated and grade 5 is poorly differentiated. Another score is also added as prevalent pattern grade. So, the overall score will be the addition of the Gleason score and the additional pattern score and it ranges from 2 to10.

Long term prognosis is considered to be excellent, when the cancer is limited to only the prostate gland.

Outcome

Outcome of the treatment depends on multiple factors and age is one of the important factors of it. Other important symptoms are health problems, stage and intensity of cancer of the patient.

      I came to see the doctor in WHE and he introduced me to the stem cell treatment. They took the stem cells from my bone marrow and fat and he injected them and it has been fabulous. I don’t have the aches and pains that I used to suffer from on a constant day to day basis. I would highly recommend it to anybody who’s looking for a remedy to their back pain and their aching joints.

      I had a medial right knee compartment surgery at World health expert with the surgical staff. I returned to work 10 days after the surgery. My profession requires me to walking, bending and standing for extended periods of time. I was able to complete my work with little discomfort. The staff and the doctors of WHE went out of their way to complete the arrangements for the surgery on very short notice.

      World Health Expert became my second family and I will treasure their friendship always. My wife had a call from the hospital that a liver had been procured and I was scheduled for surgery. I cannot begin to thank all of the wonderful members of the WHE. It would not be wrong to say that I was saved by the World Health Expert. You can visit the hospital and leave everything on them.

      I traveled to the World Health Expert and met with a medical oncologist who would become my rock throughout my treatment. His recommendation was four rounds of chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy. World Health Expert was a place for healing. The atmosphere there was soothing and compassionate. My doctor, nurses and so many others there became my caregivers.

      WHE replaced both my hips and the result is nothing short of miraculous. I was back home after surgery in 2 days. Other than a small 3 inch scar, you would never know I had hip surgery. I was free of pain from my first day home. The prescribed physical therapy returned me to full mobility within just a few weeks and allowed me to return to all of my pre-surgery sports and activities.

      I traveled to WHE who performed a minimally invasive mitral valve repair, making a two-inch incision through my right side and successfully fixing the leak. I was walking on my own the next day and left the hospital just two days later. It was such a positive experience. Everyone from the compassionate nurses and technicians who cared for me, to the welcoming environment.
