Free Prostate Cancer Screening September 9, 2009

One in six men end up with prostate cancer, which is second only to lung cancer for cancer deaths among men. There is good news, though: caught early, prostate cancer has a near-100 percent cure rate, according to the American Cancer Society. Early detection is critical, and that's why Englewood Hospital and Medical Center is offering this free prostate screening to men age 40 or older. The screening includes a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test and an optional physical exam. Appointments or insurance are not required, and free parking tokens will be provided for the Hospital visitors' lot.
