Medical practice comprising anti-aging,regenerative, aesthetic, nutritional, metabolic and functional medicine and in enhancing age and longevity. I am slowing down the aging process through metabolic and nutritional technologies, hormone replacement and other combined modalities, including PRP and stem cell technologies to help those who choose to go down this path and avoid the disease process if they neglect this pathway. I am using advanced diagnostic including epigenetics and genomics, telomere lenght assessment, and functional testing including environmmental factors to clean up the sick body and enhance life and longevity.My aesthetic practice again is only relared to improving the fesatures, and special senses, thriough specialised methodologies, including laser, RF, microneedling, and photobiomodulation, and hormone replacement therapies. As a service to the government and to medicare I also practice sickness based medicine and help a few souls who cannot afford health care, or who do not see the value in anti-aging medicine or life enhancing medicine.

What are the tests to confirm an infection of the stomach?
The most common stomach infection is Helicobater pylori, a spiral bacteria that lives in the high gastric pH. It can be detected by a BREATH test, or by testing it in faeces called an antigen detection test. These are simple methods that are cost effective, useful and treatable. A more fancy method is getting an upper GI endoscopy to have this confirmed with biopsies. READ MORE
Is pathology of pleomorphic adenoma accurate?
Generally the FNA is read as single cells in a background where there is separation of each cell from the other, however most good pathologists will make cell blocks that re-capitulates the original features of a pleomorphic adenoma. If this lesion is growing and although it is benign then it is better to have it removed, because of its unsightly appearance and growth that can cause compression effects in some cases. The pathologist doing FNAs generally are well qualified and also co-relate the Blocks, and slides with the clinical features and Ultrasound and CT scan or MRI findings before they render such a diagnosis.Surgery is a good option for a enlarging unsightly growth.

Breast cancer biopsy
What you are talking about are 2 different methodologies. In the 'needle core biopsies" generally, a large bore needle is used and the operator, mostly a pathologist (medically trained) will feel the lump or lesion, hold it between his fingers and push the needle through the numb skin several times to get pieces of tissues and cells and then spread them out on a slide, or create "cell blocks" that re-capitulates the original tissues, this is a CYTOLOGICAL technique. In the "tissue core biopsies", a special designed large bore cutting needle is used to get to deeper lumps not felt by the hand, but rather seen on ultrasound,and using a device that locates it, the trucut needle goes in and cuts out a piece of the tissue in the form of a cylinder (resembling the bore of the large needle), these are actual tissue samples and not cells, fragments or fine particulate matter from the lump. The tissue is processed as such and read as biopsies as done in HISTOLOGY as compared to the previous methodology called cytology. The second METHOD of core biopsy is much more accurate, as it provides the tissue and the entire configuration of the lesion (cancer, adenoma, etc) within the tissue matrix. One can check online resources to see papers published on this topic. READ MORE
Prostate pathology report
You have just seen a small cluster of weed growing in your favorite collection of flower beds, you have decided to ignore it and see what happens, a few days later you see a few more of these patches within the collection of the flower beds, and you still ignore it, several months and sometimes years later, the weed has now spread all over your back yard and garden, and it has become a nightmare to have it all eradicated! PROSTATE INTRA-EPITHELIAL NEOPLASIA IS the weed you saw in the small garden patch, but it has not spread as yet, or let's say, there is cancer within the prostate and they mention PIN, it means they have identified the original early cancer that was confined to the glands of the prostate in the midst of this cancer that has broken through. Generally, if the core biopsies only show a PIN, there is no way to tell if this is going to become cancer and break out or be confined to the gland.The PIN cells look like the cancer cells, but have not broken through as yet. This is not the same in the Breast called DCIS, where if present, there will be surgical action taken to remove the whole area in its entirety. READ MORE
