In the evolv­ing world of Hema­tol­ogy and Oncol­o­gy, I believe a mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­nary approach is nec­es­sary to deliv­er the most up-to-date and per­son­al­ized care to my patients. The doc­tor-patient rela­tion­ship should com­prise of com­pas­sion and empow­er­ment of med­ical knowl­edge nec­es­sary to allow patients to par­tic­i­pate in a shared deci­sion mak­ing process.

Sep­tem­ber is prostate can­cer aware­ness month. Since prostate can­cer is the sec­ond most com­mon form of can­cer in men, start­ing at age 45 for those at an increased risk and age 50 for those at an aver­age risk, screen­ing options are avail­able to help catch can­cer at an ear­ly stage. Take charge of your health and sched­ule with your pri­ma­ry care provider to dis­cuss fam­i­ly his­to­ry and risk fac­tors to deter­mine if screen­ing is right for you.

"Dr Boddipally explained the likely avenues in which my treatment would take. This path was a little different than what I was expecting following my appt with my surgeon the prior day. Dr Boddipally made sure I understood why the treatment was different, how she had that decision and what additional testing she was recommending to confirm her anticipated plan for my care. I appreciated the time she spent ensuring I understood my anticipated plan of care and answered all my questions. I felt secure in choosing her as my doctor, for her portion of care in my overall treatment."
