I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in August 2019. I received antihormonal, chemotherapy and radiation therapy with 28 treatments to my prostate and 5 treatments to my bones. As a result, my PSA was undetectable. In June of 2021 my PSA began to rise and I started second generation antihormonal medication as well as a second round of chemotherapy from July until October, at which time the side effects of the chemotherapy became unmanageable. I was left with sever neuropathy in both of my legs and feet. Tumor growth in my lower back had caused paralysis of my right leg. By the end of October 2021, I was losing weight, was mostly bed ridden and had new tumors on my lungs, liver and bones.

My oncologist recommended radioligand therapy with Lutetium-PSMA. From December 21^st, 2021 to February, 16^th, 2022, I underwent a treatment course of 3 sessions at MINUTEmedical in Vienna: one with ²²⁵Ac-PSMA and two with ¹⁷⁷Lu-PSMA. Dr. Hartenbach was very helpful, explained everything in understandable terms and was always there for me throughout the whole treatment duration and afterwards. Side effects were minimal: fatigue and nausea.

The results have been great. Metastases in my bones, liver and lungs have disappeared and PSA value has fallen from 1.9 to 0.05 with no other treatment conducted. The cancer is now in remission. I’m back to walking 3 miles a day and gaining weight. My pain has gone from an 8 out of 10 to a 1 out of 10. I am extremely grateful and appreciative to Doctor Hartenbach and his team. You have given me a new lease on life. THANK YOU.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2015 (Gleason 9) which, despite treatment, eventually recurred and metastasized into my lymph nodes and seminal vesicles. To control the spread, I was put on ADT which had horrible side effects that made my life miserable, worse than the disease itself (I was told at the time by my advanced prostate cancer specialist that "you are not going to like this").

Seeking an alternative to ADT so I could live a normal life, in 2021 I was referred to Dr. Hartenbach for Lu-177 PSMA therapy. After three rounds of Lu-177 PSMA treatment, the metastasis has disappeared, there is no tumor growth outside the prostate, there is only minimal residual PSMA in the prostate (all confirmed by PSMA PET/CT scan), and my PSA has dropped to 0.57. All this with no significant side effects beyond some fatigue after treatment, which resolved quickly. The treatment itself was easy and Dr. Hartenbach took plenty of time to review my test results and clearly explain everything to my satisfaction. I am now back to 'watchful waiting' and not on any medication for prostate cancer. I work full time.

I can't recommend Dr. Hartenbach and Lu-177 PSMA therapy enough to anyone with a similar diagnosis. I wish I had never heard of ADT and, at the time, could have done Lu-177 PSMA instead. My family and I thank Dr. Hartenbach sincerely.

Professor Markus Hartenbach is an incredible medical professional.

It is so rare to find a Professor like Professor Hartenbach. Not only he has taken great care of my health problems, but also he has the wisdom of advice when you speak with him at every appointment. Indeed it is wonderful to find a Professor that combines such personal touch and care for us patients with his outstanding qualities of medical care. I especially loved how Professor Hartenbach took his time to explicitly explain my health conditions as well as my treatment options. To make this long journey short, my treatment was 100% successful in terms of taking off my metastasis cancer and now I am living life on my second term. His resources and amazing knowledge to treat patients are a jewel and world-class in this particular medical field.

Professor Hartenbach's demeanor has really put me at ease and made me always feel like as  I am a member of his extended family circle.

We cancer patients need human beings like the PROFESSOR. God bless you PROFESSOR and more Power.

After exhausting all available treatment options for my Fourth Stage Prostate Cancer in the USA, I was fortunate enough to find Dr. Hartenbach and Minute Medical.
The method of nuclear medicine and Lutetium treatment gave me a new lease on life, and the treatment I received worked very well on me with minimal side effects.
 Dr. Hartenbach and his medical team are not only true professionals but also wonderful human beings.
