Yet another professional video presentation. I feel compelled to relay my sincere thanks for all of your informative presentations. I have forwarded your videos to others here in the UK that have Prostate cancer and without exception, the comments are always a definitive “Excellent” I personally was diagnosed last week with a Gleason score of 3 + 4 and the oncology department wanted to start treatment immediately. I have, at this juncture, opted for Active Surveillance which is also the view of a British Professor in London Mark Emberton, his advice is often on parallel with Professor Scholz. As you appreciate, we have a totally different system here with the NHS and certainly in London and other major cities, we have a sensible approach to treating Prostate Cancer effectively. Thank you Alex for your assiduous work on this platform My best regards to you all.
