How likely are you to recommend Dr. Tu?
My dad went to see Dr. Tu after he was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer. With my dad's treatment, Dr Tu balanced both quality of life concerns and our desire for increased survival rate. I was at first concerned that his treatment plan was too mild. But, it has now been 4 years since Dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer, and my dad's PSA levels have been below 2 for the last 3 years. The cancer nodules have shrunk to the point where they are practically non-existent. He was not subjected to unnecessary incisions, surgeries or radiation, so he has not been bedridden or in unnecessary pain. He was not over-prescribed medication, so his osteoporosis is stable. My dad feels strong, happy, and positive about life. And, he seems to have a few more good years ahead of him as he enters his 80th in life. Much appreciation to Dr Tu. We wish him the best at his new practice.
