The Prostate Cancer Centre in Calgary supports excellence in prostate cancer awareness, education, treatment, advocacy and research with the ultimate goal of eliminating advanced prostate cancer.
When detected early, prostate cancer is one of the most successfully treated types of cancer.
Prostate cancer is the leading form of cancer diagnosed in men. If diagnosed early, prostate cancer may be curable. Even when the disease is advanced, treatment can eradicate symptoms, and prolong survival. Survival rates for prostate cancer have been improving for the last four years perhaps due to the importance that is placed on early detection.
“I can’t say enough about the Calgary Prostate Cancer Centre and the great work they do with prostate cancer research and education.”
