Our Men's Health Walk-In Clinics have now seen over 70 men across three sessions 🚹
Across these clinics we have found 2 new cases of prostate cancer, picked up through a routine check. The sessions have also found cases of high blood pressure, raised PSA levels, pre-diabetes, palpitations and prostatitis in men who had no idea anything was wrong.
April is Stress Awareness Month. Stress can quietly affect your blood pressure, your heart and your blood sugar - these are some of the things we check at the clinic. Simple, routine checks – helping spot issues early and keeping you on track with your health.
