November is Stomach Cancer Awareness Month!

Stomach (gastric) cancer begins when cells in the stomach grow uncontrollably. Because early stages often have no symptoms, many people don’t realize something is wrong until later.

Possible signs may include:
• Feeling bloated after eating
• Feeling full quickly
• Nausea
• Heartburn or indigestion

Symptoms and outcomes can vary depending on where the cancer begins within the stomach, and this can also influence treatment options.

💜 Today is World Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Day! 💜

The pancreas plays a vital role in digestion and blood sugar regulation — but pancreatic cancer often goes unnoticed in its early stages.

Because early symptoms are rare, many people don’t realize anything is wrong until later, when signs like decreased appetite or unexplained weight loss may appear.

👉 Raising awareness can help drive earlier detection and better outcomes.

🫁 November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month!

Lung cancer remains the second most common cancer in both men and women in the U.S. (excluding skin cancer) — and it’s the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, responsible for about 1 in 5 cancer deaths. Each year, more lives are lost to lung cancer than to colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined.

✅ Early detection saves lives. If you’re at high risk, talk to your healthcare provider about lung cancer screening.

💙 Thanks to advances in screening and treatment, lung cancer deaths have declined significantly in recent years — progress worth celebrating and continuing.

About SFPTI

"Proton therapy is the latest and by far the most advanced radiation treatment available. At SFPTI we use these highly precise particle beams instead of traditional x-rays to treat tumors more precisely, with much less exposure to the surrounding normal tissues. Proton therapy can be used to treat children with cancer as well as adult tumors of the brain, spine, head and neck, lung, prostate, GI tract, and breast tumors. We are truly grateful to finally be able to make this long standing vision of bringing this world-class technology to south Florida a reality." SFPTI is led by Medical Director, Tim R. Williams, M.D., together with Scott A. Gasiorek M.D. With nearly 60 years of combined radiation oncology experience, they are among the most trusted and respected radiation oncologists in Palm Beach County. Dr. Charles Shang is the Director of Medical Physics and is one of the industry’s preeminent medical physicists, having practiced for over 30 years. He works closely with the physicians to devise the safest and most effective treatment plans for our patients.
