5 Questions with Dr. Jonathan Haas – on Prostate Cancer

Dr. Jonathan A. Haas and I first met last September as guests on New York's WABC Radio where we discussed prostate cancer awareness, preventative measures, screenings and treatment options. Dr. Haas, M.D., is Chief of Radiation Oncology at Winthrop-University Hospital of Long Island, NY. He isn't my doctor, but I feel it's important as I travel the country to meet some of our country's leading researchers and doctors, from whom I get a variety of perspectives and answers to your many questions. A cancer diagnosis can be a scary thing -- I know, I've been there -- but knowledge helps reduce the level of anxiety, especially when it comes to considering treatment options. Below are '5 Questions' with Dr. Haas. More Q & A's with other experts will follow.
