Treatment Options Available
The clinic offers the two main treatments for prostate cancer. The choice depends on the cancer stage and patient health. Patients receive a pre-surgical assessment costing around $570.
Radical Prostatectomy (Surgery)
This surgery removes the entire prostate gland. It is used for localized cancer. The procedure typically requires a hospital stay. The standard laparoscopic approach is included in the price. Using the advanced Da Vinci robotic system is an additional option, costing around $7,350 extra. This can allow for more precise surgery.
Radiotherapy
External beam radiation therapy is a non-surgical option. It uses targeted radiation to destroy cancer cells. Treatment is usually done on an outpatient basis. The process starts with simulation and planning, which may cost around $1,450. The full course of treatment sessions is typically around $45,000.
Additional Specialist Care
For complex cases, further molecular testing is available. This includes FISH analysis and additional PET PSMA scans. Such specialized testing may cost around $10,000–$12,000. Throughout care, patients can consult with urologists and radiologists. These consultations may cost around $420 each. The clinic's expert urog-oncology team provides individualized treatment plans.
