Our ZERO prostate cancer support group provides information and inspiration to prostate cancer patients and caregivers at all stages of the disease, from the newly diagnosed to the long-time survivor.

We meet twice each month—online via Zoom on the third Wednesday, and in person on the fourth Wednesday, Some people attend both meetings, but many choose one or the other. Meetings are free, volunteer led, and do not provide individual medical advice. Meetings last no more than two hours.

Next Meeting

Our next Zoom meeting is on Wednesday, July 16, at 6 pm Pacific Time. The first hour will be a general discussion with questions and answers. This is a chance to learn from one another's lived experiences and to provide shared support.

At 7 pm we will be joined by our guest speaker. This month's guest is Dr. George Schade. Dr. Schade is a urologist with the University of Washington Medical Center. Dr. Schade will be discussing focal therapy to treat localized prostate cancer.

Dr. George R. Schade is a UW associate professor in Urology and adjunct assistant professor in the UW Center for Industrial and Medical Ultrasound and Applied Physics Lab. Dr. Schade specializes in urologic oncology, with a specific focus on bladder, prostate, kidney, and testicular cancers. He performs open, laparoscopic and robotic surgery.

Our next in-person meeting is on Wednesday, July 23, at 6 pm at the Greenwood Senior Center, 525 N 85th Street in Seattle. Our room is off the parking lot behind the building. Look for a sign on the door at the west end.

In-person meetings are smaller and more intimate. We do not have guest speakers at our in-person meetings but focus on listening and supporting on another on our cancer journeys.
