Dr. Andrew Armstrong: Professor of Medicine at Duke University School of Medicine on Joe Biden's Cancer Diagnosis

from WPTF Afternoon News

Former President Joe Biden's office has announced that he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. The diagnosis came after the 82-year-old reported urinary symptoms, which led doctors to discover a nodule on his prostate. On Friday, it was confirmed that the cancer had spread to the bone, indicating a more aggressive form of the disease. However, his office noted that the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive, which allows for more effective management. Dr. Andrew Armstrong, a Professor of Medicine at Duke University’s School of Medicine, joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss the diagnosis.
