On this latest episode of "Spirit and Truth" we focus on a topic close to many hearts, facing prostate cancer with resilience, information, and hope. I sit down with Dr. Sagar Patel, a radiation oncologist, for a candid discussion that blends medical advice with personal experience.
"So every year, we seem to be making advances in the drugs, but the cornerstone of suppressing the testosterone, for better or worse, will remain a backbone of treatment for a big proportion of men who are diagnosed with prostate cancer."
- Dr. Sagar Patel
