GAINESVILLE, GA, February 16, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Over 200,000 times a year a patient will leave his urologist's office having been told he has prostate cancer. What the patient thought to be a disease of old men from which they do not die, now presents a very complicated and frustrating dilemma about what treatment to pursue. The newly diagnosed prostate cancer patient does not need a definitive text book on prostate cancer; rather, he needs to know what is pertinent and specific to him in making a decision on how to treat it. The Decision offers the reader an insider's view to the key issues necessary for a well thought out treatment plan that is unique to him. Drawing upon his experience in treating prostate cancer for over twenty years, as well as having been through the decision making and treatment process as patient himself uniquely qualifies the author as a mentor to the reader. His book outlines a novel and multi-faceted approach to aid the newly diagnosed prostate cancer patient in making his "Decision."

Dr. McHugh's ground-breaking decision method utilizing the "McHugh Decision Worksheet" and "Who are you factors" delineate an approach to the prostate cancer decision which simplifies this undaunting task. Meshing the specifics of the each patient's cancer, the evaluation of the risks as they apply to him, and the "who are you factors", the "Decision" guides the patient in making the right decision for the right reasons and specific to him.
