Dr. David Samadi Provides Free Consultations for Men Newly Diagnosed with Prostate Cancer

NEW YORK, Sept. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In support of Prostate Cancer Awareness month, Dr. David Samadi, Chairman of Urology and Chief of Robotic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, will offer free consultation to men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer. It is Dr. Samadi's mission to bring awareness to the early stages of this potentially deadly disease affecting about 1 in 7 men during their lifetime.

"It is important to recognize the early signs of what could lead to prostate cancer," Dr. Samadi said. "I wanted to offer free consultations to encourage more men to seek multiple opinions on how to conquer what could be a very serious condition.

As a world renowned prostate cancer surgeon and urologic oncologist and Chairman of Urology and Chief of Robotic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, Dr. Samadi's distinguished career has been dedicated to the early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of prostate cancer. Dr. Samadi is a recognized leader giving lectures around the world in treating prostate cancer using cutting edge technology of da Vinci surgical robot. He has performed more than 7,000 successful robotic prostate surgeries providing personalized care both before and after the procedure.

"Second only to skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men living in the United States," said Dr. Samadi. "Any cancer diagnosis is unsettling and for men, a prostate cancer diagnosis is especially so. Many men will have justified concerns of not only beating it but how will this affect their urinary and sexual functioning. My goal is to reassure men that I will be with them every step of their journey in fighting and defeating this cancer."

Dr. Samadi's free consultation provides men in the New York area the opportunity to educate themselves during the early stage of cancer. Although prostate cancer is more commonly detected in men over the age of 50 it can affect men of all ages. Young men also have the potential to be diagnosed with the disease and should pay attention to warning signs.

"Any man who has just received a prostate cancer diagnosis, should always get a second opinion from another doctor," advised Dr. Samadi. "That is why I am providing free consultation for any man newly diagnosed with this condition. I will sit down with him and his family to review his medical records, discuss what are the best treatment options appropriate for his stage of cancer, and what I can do to help him as he goes through this process. I want him and his loved ones to know that this is a fight no man should face alone."

Dr. Samadi stresses that even though prostate cancer is a complex disease, thanks to early detection and improved treatments, prostate cancer survival rates have improved significantly in over the past few decades.

Patients newly diagnosed with prostate cancer can contact Dr. David Samadi for a free consultation and to learn more about prostate cancer risk by calling 212-365-5000.
