| St. Joseph Hospital's Prostate Cancer Program provides state-of-the-art, comprehensive medical care for prostate cancer patients while working to raise awareness in the community in order to encourage early detection through prostate-specific antigen tests and other screening tools. Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among men in the United States and the second leading cause of cancer death in men, next to lung cancer. Each year, more than 230,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer, and nearly 30,000 die of the disease. |

The Prostate Cancer Program at the St. Joseph Hospital Cancer Institute is unique in Orange County in providing a multidisciplinary approach to prostate cancer management. Our prostate cancer specialists include urologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, pathologists and radiologists, as well as a dedicated nurse navigator. These team members work closely together and share information to ensure that patients receive the best possible care.
Our highly skilled and dedicated team meets regularly at Cancer Conferences to evaluate and present treatment recommendations. As they develop treatment plans, they consider the most effective approach for each patient and take advantage of knowledge produced by the latest medical research on prostate cancer.
We offer a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic services, from PSA tests to cutting-edge robotic surgeries. Our goal is to combine innovative technology with personalized, compassionate care to achieve superior outcomes—and to promote healing of body, mind and spirit. |
