By Phyllis Schroeder


There are so many individuals who have been stricken down with cancer in this current day and age, most specifically prostate cancer. Dr Samadi, a world-renowned specialist who was originally born in Iran, has made it his mission to battle this crippling and ugly disease through unique regimens and treatments. Most know of his successes through the use of robotic surgery on patients who have been stricken by this dreaded disease.

This type of cancer is most common among middle age and older men. The many symptoms include the onset of painful urination, lowered sexual ability, and an increase in the frequency of urination. Although this disease is becoming more common, the rate of mortality is lowered very year as physicians such as this notorious individual find new ways to combat its progress.

This very talented and committed man came from humble beginnings. He immigrated from overseas at the age of 15. He was actually born a Jew in Iran and fled when it became difficult in his country, leaving a young sister and both of his parents in his homeland. Both he and his brother went to school in the countries of Belgium and Great Britain before arriving on American soil. Both received their high school diplomas here in the States and continued their educations in college.

Samadi attended Stony Brook University, Montefiore Medical Center, and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine before starting his career. His brother went on to become a well respected ear, nose and throat doctor while he struck out on his own and specialized in prostate and similar surgeries.

Through the years, he helped more than 6,000 patients with prostate cancer through his surgeries and progressive new methods. The one procedure that he is most acclaimed for is the Samadi Modified Robotic Treatment (SMART) where he uses the advanced technology of robotics to perform a very noninvasive form of surgery on his patients. This type of surgery has become extremely popular as patients experience little pain, have very little blood loss, a shorter recovery time, and little if any scarring. Several celebrities have taken advantage of his new methodology. His success rate is extremely high. About 90% of his patients return to their former lifestyles symptom and cancer free.

He is now an oncologist at Lenox Hill Hospital as well as Chairman of the Urology Department and Chief of the Robotic Surgery Department. He is also a medical news correspondent for a major television company as well as a medical commentator for a well-known New York radio station.
