My Story…
In 2016 I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I was fortunate to be referred to Dr. Tatum Tarin. In 2018 I was diagnosed with oral cancer. A friend and colleague, who previously had prostate cancer, died of oral cancer several years prior to my diagnosis. Although I soon learned there is no relationship between prostate and oral cancers, I was still scared that I was following the same path as my colleague. A good friend told me about Dr. Robert Ferris, a head and neck surgeon and leading cancer researcher. On my first appointment with Dr. Ferris, my wife and I felt at ease. We knew we had found a caring physician with the best knowledge and skills to treat my type of cancer. I am a very fortunate cancer survivor, both of my cancers were caught early, and both were treated with just one surgery each. It gives me comfort in knowing that if I ever need further treatments, I will benefit from the latest research right here in Pittsburgh under the care of Dr. Tarin and Dr. Ferris.
