Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in Canadian men, with over 16,000 new cases each year. The care team will monitor symptoms, markers of disease progression, stress levels, as well as overall well-being and quality of life. At no time will complementary medicine conflict or compromise the role of traditional medicine in the treatment of prostatic diseases. We perceive this groundbreaking prostate clinic to be a place where many disciplines of medicine will work in unison to deliver good care to patients with prostatic disease. The Tzu Chi Institute is working toward making this program a model for other specialized streams of care for diseases like breast cancer and arthritis.
Recruitment is underway.
