Testicular Cancers

Cancer of the testicle (also called testicular cancer or testes/testis cancer) is the most common cancer in men 15 to 35 years old. If you have been diagnosed with testicular cancer, you want to know your treatment options and how cancer or treatment may affect your sexual health and fertility. 

Our specialized team compassionately guides you through your diagnosis, treatment options and follow-up care. We’ll take time to discuss your risk of lost fertility and options such as sperm banking for fertility preservation. We combine advanced research, technology and techniques with compassionate care to create a personalized care plan that meets your unique needs.
