While assessing my options for treatment of prostate cancer, I was fortunate to meet Dr Stifelman. From the outset, he impressed me as someone very good at describing the entire process, the risks, the ups and downs. More importantly, he was clearly very confident in his ability to handle whatever was thrown at him. This confidence really put me at ease. Surgery was ultimately successful. It's now a year later, and he considers me a success story. I guess that, since whatever minor symptoms occasionally appear are manageable, I'd have to agree.
