About prostate cancer screening
A PSA blood test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen in the blood. Elevated PSA levels can be associated with prostate cancer and may indicate the need for additional evaluation. Screening recommendations vary based on age, risk factors, and individual health history, making it important to discuss screening decisions with your healthcare provider.
We encourage eligible community members to take advantage of this opportunity to better understand their health and receive important preventive care.
