Default Prostate Evaluations
I am a 70 year old Male and I had my PSA numbers all of a sudden go through the roof. I went to a local urologist and he told me I needed a biopsy. Fortunately for me I have a friend that was a surgeon for many years and he told me “do not do under any circumstances a biopsy” “it is not accurate, it’s invasive and unnecessary” that the only reason they do them is because they make a small fortune on each patient.

So being in the healthcare field I immediately did research to find out what the situation really is and what I found out is a biopsy is 64% effective and the MRI 3T prostate exam is 94% effective and it’s completely non-invasive.

Please don’t be fooled by the urologist pushing invasive biopsies they make a small fortune on these and they make nothing on an MRI 3T prostate exam.

Please know there are more then 20 reasons for a high PSA and only ONE is cancer.
