Everything is fine now

"I had prostate cancer at 55 years of age,” says Robert Grycan, who chose to seek help from Dr. Stuart Holden on the advice of a family member. Robert now goes to his appointments at the Clark Urology Center in Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. “Everything is fine now; I’m in remission. I did have a reoccurrence, but they treated that very quickly and efficiently. The care has been great. I’m very happy to have dealt with cancer and so far everything has worked out well. There are so many options that men have (to treat prostate cancer), but I think a lot of men are embarrassed to talk about it because it is a delicate subject, just as breast cancer is for women. But I think there needs to be more emphasis with men in the community to try to deal with this as much as possible.”
