We had the the opportunity to speak with Dr. Tom Neville, CEO & Chief Scientist, Soar BioDynamics

Tom’s life changed forever one January day in 2002 when he heard the words “you have prostate cancer.” The longtime scientist, executive and former athlete was suddenly thrust into the role of patient and discovered quickly that to survive his life-threatening disease he would need to take charge of his own health as never before. He also became intimately familiar with a healthcare system that was full of contradictions and conventional wisdom that needed to be challenged if it were truly to serve patients like him.

Dr. Neville worked closely with his team of doctors and was successful in fighting his own prostate cancer. He was determined to find out the facts about his condition, and quickly became aware of the controversies surrounding prostate cancer screening and treatment. This lack of certainty did not deter him from seeking treatment, but created both a desire to learn what conventional screening could or could not determine, and to see how science might yield better options and outcomes.
