In this CuraVision video Kathryn explains how Philip, mid 50’s, non-smoker, approached Cura because 5 years prior to speaking to them he was diagnosed with prostate cancer and had undergone surgery to have his full prostate removed. At the time contact was made he had recently changed jobs, in his previous employment he was covered by a Death in Service Benefit, but now his new employer didn’t offer such employee benefits. This prompted him to look at his protections needs, so if anything were to happen to him his wife would be financially secure.

At the time of his diagnosis he had what was known as a Gleason score of seven, the cancer was a Stage T2B and his original PSA readings were 23. Five years since the initial diagnosis and surgery to remove his prostate, his last two years’ worth of PSA results were 0.2, which was really favourable. Watch the video to see how after our recommendation we successfully arranged a life insurance policy that provided his wife with vital financial protection until he reached retirement age.
