A Shift in Prostate Cancer Treatment is Here
As a physician and a young man with prostate cancer, my research led me to HALO Diagnostics. The time they spent with me convinced me I’d made the right choice for treatment.

The most important risk factor is age: The odds for prostate cancer increase dramatically after men reach 50 years old. The older a man is, the more likely he is to be diagnosed.
Men with first-degree relatives (such as a father, brother, or son) with prostate cancer are more likely to get diagnosed themselves.
African American men are 1.8 times more likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer and 2.5 times more likely not to survive the disease.

Dr. John Feller, Chief Medical Officer at HALO Diagnostics, recently presented 10-year results from our phase II clinical trial of laser focal therapy for prostate cancer.1 The results are impressive.
