Lewiston, Maine - The Patrick Dempsey Center for Cancer Hope & Healing will sponsor “An Update on Prostate Cancer” on April 30.
Michael w. (sic) Brown, M.D., a radiation oncologist at Central Maine Medical Center’s Cynthia A. Rydholm Cancer Treatment Center, will discuss prostate cancer and treatment options.
Prostate cancer is second only to skin cancer in prevalence among American men. But if detected early and properly treated, the disease can be successfully managed.
Before joining the greater Lewiston-Auburn medical community last year, Brown practiced for almost three years with the University of Washington at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, where he served as a clinical assistant professor.
In addition to his years at the University of Washington, his professional experience includes four years at Madigan Army Medical Center in Tacoma, Wash., where he also served as department chief.
He completed residency training at the National Capital Consortium Department of Radiation Oncology, a joint program of the National Cancer Institute, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, and National Naval Medical Center.
He is certified in radiation oncology by the American Board of Radiology.
The presentation is scheduled for 6:15 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. at the
Dempsey Center, 29 Lowell Street, fifth floor, Lewiston
Pre-registration is required by calling 795-8250 or 1-877-336-7287.
