Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. Prostate health is a difficult subject to bring up in Malaysia, due to the sensitivities and taboos surrounding the issue. In this candid discussion between Dr George Lee and Dato' Sri Nazir Razak (former banker and prostate cancer survivor), we address the myths and misconceptions about prostate health, and offer personal insights into why prostate cancer is one of the most preventable and curable cancers.
