Welcome to Texas Prostate Seed Institute
About Us
With over 25 years and over 3000 patients of combined experience, Dr. Taylor and Dr. Hodges take pride in offering a unique, highly-effective, precise, targeted treatment for patients who are diagnosed with prostate cancer. There are many treatment options for prostate cancer. Dr. Taylor and Dr. Hodges believe that prostate seed implantation (PSI), which is also known as LDR brachytherapy, should be at the forefront of any physician-patient discussion about treatment options. During your consultation with Dr. Taylor or Dr. Hodges, they will discuss the details of the procedure, the difference between their unique, innovative, adaptive, and precise technique. They will explain the treatment success rates comparing it to all treatment options. They believe the treatment option will speak for itself. And if you are not an ideal candidate for brachytherapy they will explain and guide you to the next best options.

Survivor Stories
With two powerful treatment options or combining them, Texas Prostate Seed Institute can help treat your prostate cancer safely and effectively so you can get back to living your life.
SURVIVOR | Carl Janssens
“I was surprised by how easy it was.” – Carl Janssens, Prostate Cancer Survivor on Brachytherapy. “[After the treatment] we walked out and went home.”
Although scientifically well documented, not enough prostate cancer patients are aware of the efficacy and advantageous side effect profile of brachytherapy, particularly Cesium-131.

SURVIVOR | Dave Ricordati
During Dave’s initial diagnosis for prostate cancer, his primary care physician and his urologist did not steer him toward brachytherapy.
“Assuming you are not going to hear all of your options from your physician, and you are kind of on your own, then I always suggest people do their own homework,” says Dave. “Which is exactly what we did.” So they took to the internet. His “pillar of strength,” Dave’s wife, worked alongside him to figure out all of his options.
In most conversations with physicians, following his own research, they all seemed to say the same thing: “Let’s take it out. We will take out your entire prostate and cure your cancer.” Then he visited the Chicago Prostate Cancer Center where Dr. Brian Moran had a different treatment option, without the harsh side effects of a prostatectomy. Brachytherapy.

SURVIVOR | John Aguzino
Prostate cancer survivor John Aguzino and his daughter Celeste discuss his prostate cancer treatment journey and the importance of prostate cancer support networks.
The importance of support networks for men undergoing treatment for prostate cancer can not be understated. Men might be less prone to opening up about their health, but prostate cancer is highly treatable and there are support networks available. Many of these prostate cancer support networks engage survivors to talk about the disease, treatment options and post-treatment quality of life expectations. John Aguzino is one of those survivors.

SURVIVOR | Lou Lotorto
Lou was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2007. After investigating all of his options, Lou eventually chose brachytherapy.
“I never had a day when I had a regret I might have chosen the right course. We all have our second thoughts, I had none. It was a smooth operation all the way including my recovery. In essence, I never had any time I was laid up or brought down. I kept my normal, busy schedule. I never felt like my energy was flagging or that I made a wrong choice.”
