A "must read" for anyone with prostate disease. September 19, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Dr. Patrick Walsh is a urologist at Johns Hopkins in Maryland. He has written a concise and comprehensive book about prostate disease. It is important to get as much information as possible when being treated for any disease, and also, physicians are often pressed for time and we sometimes tend to forget the questions we had intended to ask. No problem - you'll find most answers in this wonderful book. I recommend it without reservation.

Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer September 17, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is a great resource for any man over forty to read. It answers the questions of prostate care, problems, treatments; and if worse comes to worse the treatments of prostate cancer, side affects and outcomes of the various treatments. For those who have been newly diagnosed with prostate cancer, this is very great book to help one understand the alternatives for treatment and assist in making those life decisions.

As Dr. Walsh states, most men will have some form of prostate problems in their life, for this reason I would recommend it as a good read. For family members, Dr. Walsh's book, The Prostate A Guide for Men and the Women Who Love Them, is another great resource.

Having just been diagnosed with prostate cancer, I began searching for any information I could find. In early stage cancer, you have to make a decision on surgery or radiation therapy. The doctors can't make that decision for you. You need accurate and timely information to make an intelligent decision. You also need to understand the jargon associated with this cancer and its treatments such as BTH, IBRT, IGRT, Gleason Scale, PSA levels as well as complex and simple PSA. They all relate to survivability depending on the course you elect. If you, or someone you love, has been diagnosed, this book is an absolute MUST READ. With it I made my decision!!

Concise and Thorough...Up to date September 9, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful

Excellent overview of the entire spectrum of this disease. Very up to date info as of mid 2007 on most topics. As an MD afflicted with this problem I found Walsh's book more useful than medical review searches, texts, etc. Well organized and understandable to a reasonably educated lay person.

One Patient's Perspective August 28, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I recommend Dr. Patrick Walsh's book to all patients and their loved ones who are coping with a diagnosis of prostate cancer. When my PSA blood test became elevated I was advised to seek advice from a urologist. I had many questions that I was going to ask. However, my wife insisted that I read "Dr. Patrick Walsh's Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer". This book answered every one of my questions prior to my visit with the doctor. From the time of the PSA elevation, biopsy, diagnosis, treatment, and throughout the recovery process, it continued to be an invaluable guide. Dr. Walsh and Janet Worthington have taken a very complex subject and managed to convey their knowledge into language that the lay person can easily understand. Although I elected to undergo surgery, all other treatment options for prostste cancer were explained in this comprehensive book. In my opinion, it is a "must read" for men and their families!
