Prostate cancer is the leading form of cancer diagnosed in Canadian men. If diagnosed early, prostate cancer may be treatable. 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.
Treating the physical symptoms of prostate cancer or prostate related disease is only part of the recovery process. Our Resource Centre is equipped to give patients and their families the information and support they need to overcome the stresses of diagnosis and treatment.
We are Canada’s first and only mobile men’s health clinic, offering free PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) blood testing for men aged 40-80 throughout Calgary and rural southern Alberta.
In Alberta, 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. When detected early, prostate cancer is one of the most successfully treated types of cancer.
The staff and volunteers at the Prostate Cancer Centre are dedicated to educating men about the importance of early detection.
