1 in 3 men diagnosed with prostate cancer don’t require immediate treatment. Before considering surgery and its possible side-effects, let our team of experts assess if active surveillance is right for you. Through a variety of testing and monitoring methods, prostate cancer is continually observed for signs of progression. If there is evidence that the cancer is progressing, treatment might be warranted.

Mount Sinai Medical Center offers a wide array of advanced treatment options for prostate cancer with the objective of providing the most effective outcomes, the greatest level of patient comfort and the swiftest recovery times.

Our Ivy league affiliation with New York’s Columbia University Division of Urology is the only one of its kind in Florida, and gives our patients access to the most advanced minimally invasive treatment options for prostate cancer and other urological conditions.

What our patients are saying

This hospital is unique in so many ways. I love how easy it is to find parking for patients and the huge variety of specialists that the hospital has. I also like that it’s not crowded like other hospitals.

I came to the emergency room. The staff was extremely nice. I didn’t have to wait to be seen. The physicians and nurses who took care of me listened and treated me quickly..
