Board-certified urologist Dr. Jason B. Carter explains his role in the diagnosis of testicular cancer.
"It's important to understand that when you have a diagnosis like testicular cancer, to some degree, the urologist may be the quarterback in the beginning. With testicular cancer, the urologist is going to be the one you meet, get the initial procedures done, and do the post-op follow-up.
"I'm very fortunate to have an excellent radiation oncologist that I work with, and very fortunate to have a couple of very, very good medical oncologists that I work with.
"Definitely anytime you have any kind of cancer, including testicular cancer, it is always a team approach."
He shares his insights on treating testicular patients at Unity Urology, his practice in East Tennessee. He has been providing quality urologic care since 2003 and opened Unity Urology in 2006 in Greenville, Tennessee.
Other urologic conditions to know about: Dr. Carter talks about other urologic conditions such as low testosterone, other hormone therapies for men and women, infertility, incontinence, and erectile disfunction. He is a medical advisor for Aeroflow Urology.
Dr. Carter's medical degree is from East Tennessee University. He completed a residency at the University Hospital and clinics in Columbia, Missouri. He is board-certified in urology by the American Board of Urology and a member of the American Urological Association and the Tennessee Medical Association.
