Prostate Cancer Blog – Proton Therapy for Prostate Cancer

“Men should be cautious about drawing conclusions from a single observational study which has not been peer-reviewed.”

The excerpt above from a distinguished Doctor who evidently has ignored the over 20 years experience at Loma Linda’s Proton facility and the fact that they have treated over 16,000 patients (over 10,000 Prostate cancer patients since the early “90s”) for all forms of cancer and benign conditions.

It may be interesting to understand that the Loma Linda Proton Center experts take on all kinds of tumors both cancerous and benign. They in fact have taken on some cancer challenges that others would not attempt due to their lack of experience in using the full effectiveness of the Proton.

However, let me repeat, I have NO side effects and I was treated in July 1999. Let’s see, that would be almost 13 years ago!

Let’s make it clear, I do not take a penny from anyone to support this BLOG. I receive wonderful and expert advice from a professional in operating the web site and do not pay him either. So try to ignore the continued marketing of mis-information about the Proton by IMRT proponents and other competition “who consider proton therapy a fad and discount it.”

Protons are here to stay

You may have heard that Proton Therapy is still in its experimental stages – or maybe that your insurance company would deny coverage for that reason. Review this short 90 second video that addresses these questions. Courtesy of the folks at Procure in Oklahoma.
