Centers of Excellence

With significant advancements in the understanding and treatment of prostate cancer, the medical management of this disease has become increasingly sophisticated and individualized. What was once a relatively narrow treatment pathway has evolved into a wide range of options that can be tailored to a patient’s specific diagnosis, disease progression, overall health, and personal preferences. Today, prostate cancer care may include surgery, radiation therapy, immune-based treatments, hormone therapy, targeted therapies, or a combination of these approaches. In many cases, patients work with multiple specialists to ensure every aspect of their condition is properly addressed.

The physicians of Urology Associates recognize that this complexity can be overwhelming for patients and their families. Navigating treatment decisions, coordinating care across providers, and managing both the physical and emotional effects of prostate cancer requires a comprehensive and thoughtful approach. In response to these needs, we have established an Advanced Prostate Cancer Center of Excellence designed to provide coordinated, patient-focused care at every stage of the disease.

Our Center of Excellence brings together a multidisciplinary team of highly specialized physicians, advanced practice providers, and experienced nursing staff who work collaboratively from the moment of diagnosis. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all care, our team develops personalized treatment plans that reflect each patient’s unique medical needs, cancer characteristics, lifestyle considerations, and long-term goals. This team-based approach allows us to streamline care, reduce fragmentation, and ensure that no aspect of a patient’s treatment is overlooked.

All treatment decisions within our Advanced Prostate Cancer Center of Excellence are guided by evidence-based medicine and supported by nationally recognized standards from the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and the American Urological Association (AUA). By following these rigorous guidelines and staying current with emerging research and clinical advancements, we are able to offer our patients access to the most advanced and effective prostate cancer therapies available today. Our commitment to ongoing education and innovation ensures that patients receive care that reflects the latest developments in prostate cancer management.

In addition to treating the cancer itself, our team takes a comprehensive view of patient health, addressing the broader impacts of prostate cancer and its treatment. Prostate cancer and certain therapies can have significant effects on bone density, increasing the risk of fractures and long-term skeletal complications. To address this, our dedicated Bone Health Clinic allows us to proactively monitor, assess, and manage bone health throughout the course of treatment. By identifying risks early and implementing appropriate interventions, we help protect long-term mobility, strength, and quality of life.

Sexual health is another critical aspect of prostate cancer care that is often overlooked. Changes in sexual function can occur as a result of both the disease and its treatment, affecting emotional well-being and intimate relationships. Our team recognizes the importance of addressing these concerns openly and respectfully. We provide guidance, treatment options, and ongoing support to help patients manage these changes and maintain confidence and quality of life.

At Urology Associates, we understand that prostate cancer is not a short-term condition but a journey that may span many years. From initial diagnosis through treatment, monitoring, and survivorship, our goal is to walk alongside our patients every step of the way. Our team is committed to providing continuity of care, clear communication, and compassionate support throughout this process.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, choosing the right care team is one of the most important decisions you will make. To receive comprehensive, advanced, and patient-centered prostate cancer care, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with our Advanced Prostate Cancer Center of Excellence today.
