One in every six American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime, and African American men are more than twice as likely to die from the disease. That’s why Williamson Medical Center has joined a national campaign that encourages men to “Know Your Stats about Prostate Cancer®,” the second-leading cause of cancer death for American men.
Join us for a free men's health event to learn more!
Urologist Matthew Hassan, M.D., will discuss the importance of prostate cancer screening, the impact of prostate cancer on American men and the range of available treatment options.
Who: Men age 40 and older and their spouses
When: 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 8
Where: Williamson Medical Center Meeting Rooms A, B and C
Lunch will be served, and space is limited. RSVP by contacting WMC physician liaison Cathy Cochran at 615.435.5362 or ccochran@wmed.org. Include your first and last name and contact phone number.
Know Your Stats is a national prostate cancer awareness campaign from the American Urological Association Foundation and the National Football League. Now in its third year, the campaign is bringing the message to fans across the country, educating men and their loved ones about the importance of prostate health.
