Prostate Cancer Awareness Month Screenings

Dignity Health Cancer & Research Institutes are offering Prostate Cancer Screening Events in September for men over 40 (or 35 for high-risk individuals). This initiative, in partnership with The Prostate Conditions Education Council (PCEC), aims to promote early detection, as prostate cancer is the third leading cause of cancer death in men but is nearly 100% survivable  when discovered early.
