NYC prostate cancer surgeon’s new book reminds men they do not have to face prostate cancer alone
Dr. David Samadi, renowned prostate cancer surgeon and men’s health expert, has long dreamed of writing a book on a subject close to his heart—prostate cancer. His fascination with the prostate gland’s complexities began in medical school and ultimately inspired his decision to specialize in urology. Now, after treating over 10,000 patients in his 25-year career, Dr. Samadi’s vision has been realized with the release of his second book, Prostate Cancer: Now What? A Practical Guide to Diagnosis, Treatment, and Recovery.
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer diagnosis among men, and Dr. Samadi’s new book, released this September which is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, provides critical guidance for men and their families seeking clear and up-to-date information. His motivation for writing stems from a desire to address the need for actionable advice during an often overwhelming and uncertain treatment journey.
“I wrote this book to offer men clarity and support during their battle with prostate cancer,” said Dr. Samadi. “I hope it empowers readers with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions and face this challenge head-on.”
A unique aspect of Prostate Cancer: Now What? is the inclusion of personal stories from ten men of various ages, sharing their experiences with prostate cancer. These anecdotes provide readers with both inspiration and practical insight, highlighting the emotional and physical challenges faced during treatment and recovery.
Readers will also find:
- Detailed information on prostate cancer risks, diagnosis, and treatment options
- Guidance on post-cancer recovery, including restoring sexual health
- Lifestyle advice on nutrition, exercise, and stress management
- Frequently asked questions answered by Dr. Samadi
As Ridwan Shabsigh, MD, FACS, Editor-In-Chief of the Journal of Men’s Health notes, “This book is a must-read for men and their families. It belongs on every book club’s list.”
