My, Primary Care Physician, Dr. Luyen Cao M.D., has been helping me monitor my PSA level in my Prostate, since it began to rise in late 2020. Earlier this year ordered a PSA screening for me and discovered my PSA had risen to 11.1 when Dr. Cao suggested I contact a Urologist to have a specialist help me determine the best course of action for me. I contacted Dr. Murali Ankem M.D. Who had been my Urologist several years ago. I met with Dr. Ankem and we scheduled a Prostate biopsy for Apil 20, 2023, which was the appointment we are discussing, Dr. Ankem and his Resident Surgeon went over the results of the Prostate Biopsy with me on April 20, 2023 and we have established a course of action to treat my diagnosis of a low-grade Prostate Cancer, over the next year or two. I have a lot of faith in Dr. Ankem and his team to treat me and help me thru these difficult times. I am also greatful to have a Primary Care Physician like Dr Luyen Cao, to help me with my care during this process.
