Fight Cancer Like a Man:
What Is the Prostate Protocol?
Most prostate cancer care is rushed, fear-driven, and focused on damage control. The Prostate Protocol offers a smarter way forward—built for men who want to stay strong, informed, and in control.
Whether you’ve been diagnosed with prostate cancer or have an elevated PSA, this isn’t the end—it’s the start of a better strategy.
Dr. Petteruti’s Fort Lauderdale-based protocol helps you:
Use strategic, personalized surveillance—not fear-based reaction
Access repurposed medications like ivermectin and mebendazole with anti-cancer potential
Optimize hormones with functional lab testing and targeted support
Follow evidence-informed supplement protocols that support your long-term health
This is prostate care designed to protect your power—not take it away.

Testimonials
Great doctor with great insights on how to cope with elevated PSA and prostate cancer!

Intellectual medicine is a forward thinking, professional practice. Dr Petterutti is very bright and caring, as is the entire team. I have recommended them to many of my friends and associates.

My husband saw Dr. Petteruti while he was searching for information on prostate cancer and how to deal with it. Dr. Petteruti's information and guidance were the best of all that my husband found...by far!
We made the trip across the country to his office, and we're so glad we did. Since that initial visit, we've been able to Zoom for follow-ups. We're so excited that he is opening a second clinic in Fort Lauderdale in the fall. It will be so easy to get there from Texas! He and his efficient staff have put us on the right track with our health issues that we acquired over 3/4ths of a century and no one else could help us with. There is nothing like Intellectual Medicine in east Texas. They run a very well rounded clinic and are able to handle many different areas of health concerns. We're both patients of Dr. Petteruti now, and we're feeling so much better and beginning to enjoy our lives again. I've been to several functional medicine doctors over the years. Dr. Petteruti is the fifth one. None of the others compare. It's not even close.
Bonus: The staff and the doctor are friendly, knowledgeable, caring, and enjoy what they do. I'm sure it's rewarding for them to see all the improvement in a person's health while administering patient care in a way that actually helps the body heal naturally. My husband nor I have ever been a fan of big Pharma, so this is a match made in heaven for us. Thank you, Intellectual Medicine! If anybody is reading this who works at Intellectual Medicine, hurry and finish that cookbook! I can hardly wait!

Thanks for stopping by—I know your health is one of the most personal and important decisions you’ll ever make, and I don’t take that lightly. I’m Dr. Stephen Petteruti, a board-certified physician based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with over 30 years of experience helping men take control of their health—especially when facing complex decisions around prostate cancer, rising PSA levels, hormone therapy, and long-term performance.
My journey started in conventional medicine. But early on, I realized too many men were being pushed into surgery or radiation without a plan that respected their goals, quality of life, or future health. That’s why I built Intellectual Medicine and created The Prostate Protocol—a smarter, integrative model that combines functional medicine, repurposed drug therapy, hormone optimization, and evidence-based supplements.
Today, I work with men across South Florida through both in-person visits in Fort Lauderdale and telehealth consultations. Whether you’ve just received a diagnosis, are watching your PSA trend upward, or want a second opinion before starting treatment—I’ll help you build a clear, personalized plan based on your biology, not fear.
Outside of the clinic, I’m a husband, father, author of Fight Cancer Like a Man, and founder of Intellectual Medicine University, where I train providers nationwide in functional, anti-aging, and cancer-supportive care. Through this work, I’ve helped hundreds of men avoid overtreatment, reduce PSA anxiety, and stay strong and in control of their long-term health.
If you’re looking for prostate cancer care in Fort Lauderdale or via telehealth, and want a plan that’s thoughtful, strategic, and tailored to you—I’d be honored to work with you.
Let’s build your protocol.
“When you act out of fear, you lose control. When you act out of clarity, you take your power back.”
— Dr. Stephen Petteruti
