Always have thought Dr. Scholz was impressive and excellent in the information he conveys. Honest, straight-forward and unaffected by the industry.
Liked the format sitting outside at the clear glass table starting with “let’s talk about prostate cancer”. Was like a personal and honest transparent discussion.
This is even better as it covers a topic, but is more focused, based on inquiries from patients. So effective! Very well done both of you ! Much thanks. Doing some really good and important work.
Thank you so much, Jim!!
I have been following Dr. Scholz videos from Brazil and I am so impressed by how much he knows about prostate cancer and the personal way he informs us. I thank you for these videos!
Grateful for your good guidance. This is sooo very helpful.
Like the video quality. More effective from two chairs. Great questioning and responses. Especially good because they follow patient inquiries. Really very professionally done. So valuable. Thank you so much !
Thank you for listing specific PSA levels. Very informative.
Excellent job. We are all grateful for your wisdom and clarity on this intriguing subject. Take care and God bless.
Thank you for this.
Great work - thank you.
Thank you 😊
Thankyou so much
If cancer returns after brachytherapy, is surgery an option? If not, is implanting more seeds possible?
Continuos 0.01 PSA level for more that 20 months can be considered as the cancer free survival ?
How can the PET scan be used to discern whether an individual is a candidate for Active Surveillance or local treatment such as HIFU, Tulsa Pro, Focal Laser Ablation or more aggressive treatment?
It seems like many men are rushed to surgery or radiation when a biopsy reveals GL 6 or 7. When are additional diagnostic tests beyond the biopsy are needed to select optimal treatment options.
Great question! We will add that to our list of questions for future videos. In the meantime, our helpline is available if you want an answer that is specific to your case: pcri.org/helpline
@@ThePCRI I am already a patient of Dr. Turner. Great information and I appreciate that your educational efforts show the greatest respect to all of us.
I’m looking for a dr Scholz in Australia. Can you refer one to me?
Starting radiation in about 1 month after 2 months of hormone therapy lupron..is it safe to stop hormone treatment after radiation? How long after? Can it be restarted if PSA rises above. 05?
The recommended duration of hormone therapy depends on the cancer's stage. Our prostate cancer helpline can answer that question for your specific case. Please feel free to contact us here: pcri.org/helpline
