CEO/Founder
I am an accidental prostate cancer survivor, radical prostatectomy, Class of 2003. The PCAP and our new prostate cancer early warning tool, ProstateTracker, are a direct result of the accidental prostate cancer diagnosis that saved my life.
Unfortunately, 30,000 men die every year, many because they did not know they had prostate cancer while it still was treatable.
The Prostate Cancer Awareness Project and I are on a journey to make the PCAP Prostate Cancer Manifesto a reality – “That every man has a right to know he has prostate cancer while it still is treatable.”
I hope you will join me on that journey.
Warm regards, Robert
