I was visiting with Dr.Shapiro while reviewing recent blood work; which Dr. Shapiro had ordered. Doctor noticed a spike in a marker for cancer .The testing that came next showed I had a malignant bladder cancer .Doctor Shapiro discovered the malignancy much sooner than a less caring and diligent physician would have.I had very few symptoms. This early diagnosis became very relevant when we learned from the MRI and the surgery that the cancer was located at the point of a ureter where the bladder and kidney connect as well as in the bladder wall.I am convinced Doctor Shapiro's early diagnosis prevented the cancers escaping the bladder and landing in nearby organs. My family and I are very grateful to Dr Shapiro and his support team at the office.
