Stage 4 Prostate Cancer Survivor - Anthony's Envita Review
He knew he had an elevated PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) and was experiencing lower back pain too, but Anthony Mitchell, a retired CIA officer, could never associate these two health indicators with a stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis. Within eight weeks of treatment at Envita Medical Centers, a world-class integrative center for precision oncology located in Scottsdale, Arizona, Tony's PSA dropped from 1780 to 2.1, which is within range, as a score greater than 4.0 ng/ml is considered abnormal. "I'm amazed... by looking at the clinical proof. We just feel very fortunate... because we are not special, but it turns out everything about our treatment is special," said Tony, who traveled from Texas to seek treatment for his wife's stage 4 ovarian cancer at Envita and ended up getting treated for his own stage 4 prostate cancer as well.

Diagnosed by Chance
"I had never been sick in my life... my cancer journey started with Janet," said Tony, explaining how his stage 4 prostate cancer was diagnosed by chance. His wife, Janet, mentioned his elevated PSA to her treating doctor, and they recommended that Tony go for a detailed diagnosis. Despite being aware of it for the past two years, Tony never experienced any symptoms, nor was he ever asked to do anything about his elevated PSA. However, when Tony went for a PSA test, it revealed a concerning score of 1780 ng/ml with metastatic spread of his prostate cancer to the bones.
Motivated by Wife's Recovery Route
“My wife's at Envita... my treatment was going to be at Envita,” said Tony, who was impressed with his wife's response to stage 4 ovarian cancer treatment. He chose the precision oncology treatment options at Envita, over standard oncology treatments.
Proprietary Diagnostics, Personalized Treatments and Immunotherapies
“We started just like with Janet,” added Tony, while emphasizing how Envita's detailed proprietary tests and genomic analysis highlighted the various factors, which also influence the growth and spread of disease. These tests are designed to get more information about each patient's cancer and its microenvironment, including presence of molds, metal toxicities, viral, bacterial, and fungal infections. The detailed bioinformatics data plays a crucial role in personalizing a comprehensive treatment plan, with the goal of attacking each patient's cancer from all possible angles while reactivating the immune system's innate ability to effectively tackle the cancer.
At Envita, we combine the latest developments in conventional medicine with research-based advanced natural therapies to achieve optimal outcomes with minimal side effects. Our proprietary treatments, such as GTFC™ (Genetically Targeted Fractionated Chemotherapy), are based on a detailed genomic analysis. GTFC™ helps to identify more appropriate chemo agents with a higher potential for cancer cell kill than those used in standard maximum therapeutic dose, untargeted chemotherapy. It enhances the mechanisms of action against the cancerous cells while minimizing the impact on surrounding healthy cells. GTFC™ deploys a greater number of chemo agents than those used in standard maximum therapeutic dose untargeted chemotherapy, but the metronomic dosage of patient-matched chemotherapies often leads to successful outcomes, like Tony's.
His Envita Connection
Tony found out about Envita, when his wife was researching alternative treatment options for treating her stage 4 ovarian cancer. “If you have to put your hands in any medical professional's care, you want to come to Envita,” said Tony, who is ecstatic about his response to treatment, as he gears up to go back with his wife, to his loving family and happy life in Texas.
