James Schraidt, who runs the group and is a moderator with the AnCan Virtual Support Group for Active Surveillance, noted that Dr. Levine has been his urologist for over 10 years. “He was willing to try to help me with post-prostatectomy issues when others were either unable or willing to do so. He is truly committed to his patients, and has always gone out of his way to provide me with the best possible care and accommodate my physical and emotional issues,” said Schraidt. “I am confident his presentation and Q and A will be helpful to you in your prostate cancer journey.”
