Protect Yourself, Spare Your Tissues & Silence Future Threats


Compared to standard X-ray radiation and other treatments, California Protons offers patients:

Unmatched Precision

Proton beams can be manipulated to conform to the unique size and shape of the tumor and stop at its edge precisely.

Radiation Dose Variation

Doctors can vary the intensity of the radiation dose at any point within the tumor to optimize treatment.

Radiation Protection

More targeted radiation helps protect your rectum, bladder, bowel and fragile healthy tissues with up to 60% less radiation to nearby organs.

Lower Incidence of Secondary Tumors

Reduced radiation to healthy tissues lowers the risk of secondary cancer and results in up to a 97% chance of avoiding recurrence.

Reduced Side Effects

Risk of lowered testosterone levels, urinary and rectal problems, gastrointestinal disorders and impotence are less likely.

Shortened Treatment Time

Our hypofractionation treatment plan lasts 4 to 6 weeks (opposed to 8 to 9 weeks) and has been shown to be just as effective.

97%

Patients experienced no recurrence 1

According to a survey from the National Association for Proton Therapy, approximately 97% of patients who received the advanced form of radiation for prostate cancer reported that they had not experienced a recurrence of their disease. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/97-percent-of-prostate-cancer-patients-treated-with-proton-therapy-have-not-suffered-recurrence-253554181.html

Success Stories

Sal Mariscal
Steve Scott
Randy Grimm

  • "I completed treatment for prostate cancer at California Protons back in March 2018. Insofar as the people, the facility and the actual treatment are concerned, I would give them a 10+ if I could. The front desk staff to the technicians and everyone in-between were as nice, professional and concerned with my well being as could be. My doctors actually recommended surgery, radioactive implants and regular radiation but my decision to use proton therapy was driven by my desire to be able to pinpoint my cancer and have as minimal side effects as possible. Today, I am cancer-free and living a normal life with energy and vigor. Thank you Dr. Rossi and California Protons for giving me back my health."

  • "I have experienced absolutely no side effects from my treatments. I coached my men’s and women’s cross-country teams throughout my treatments, without missing a single day. I’ve maintained the intimacy I value so much with my wife, JoAnn, and remain active as a father and mentor in the community."

  • "I discovered from day one that the CA Protons staff is highly experienced and professional. Each specialist … from my “angel” radiation nurse Benny … to my proton technicians “Dream Team” of Rene, Dyan, Livier and others … all are truly “the best of the best” at what they do! They know you by name and care for you as a friend."
