Dr. Phranq Tamburri, N.M.D.
Prostate Health and Urology
My Care Philosophy
Patients confronting prostate cancer are often unaware that cancer itself is only half the problem – the other half, in my opinion, is the medical system, which one is unknowingly forced to confront. My philosophy is to meet the patient where they are, provide them with an understanding of their health and condition through a conventional and unconventional lens, and help them to navigate their concerns, frustrations, and options within the (de)evolving medical system.
