“I was always perplexed, during the evaluation and treatment of HPV patients, why we were seeing patients over and over for treatment of the same individual warts. At that point, I realized that the destruction of genital warts was one thing while the prevention of relapses was another. Today, experience is the main contributor to my success of treating tens of thousands of HPV patients to this date. As a patient with genital warts, you must read, get educated, know the pathophysiology of your condition, and always explore your options before wisely choosing the best treatment. I have prepared this book for patients who suffer from this silent intruder as I believe that knowledge is power: power of overcoming this devastating epidemic. This book has been prepared based on my years of experience in treating Genital Anal warts.” S. Arani, M.D.
