A complete, plain-language guide to prostate cancer — from diagnosis to survivorship — written for patients and families. Read it cover to cover, or jump to the chapter that fits where you are.
Between chapters, I publish plain-language, critical reviews of new prostate cancer research — what each study actually shows, and what it means for patients.
Read & subscribe on Substack →This book grew out of the questions my patients and their families ask me most often. I began by turning those questions into an outline, then organized them into a logical path through the disease — from diagnosis to survivorship. I transcribed my own thinking on each topic, used OpenEvidence to search the medical literature and help draft the evidence behind each chapter, and then used Claude to format and structure the text into the guide you are reading. The clinical perspective throughout is my own.
