Free Prostate Cancer Screenings Provided by LA POP
USA Health is partnering with the Alabama Department of Public Health to offer PSA tests to screen for prostate cancer through the USA Health Lower Alabama Prostate Outreach Project (LA POP).
LA POP is a mobile RV clinic that will provide free prostate cancer screenings in Mobile, Baldwin, Clarke, Conecuh, Washington, and Escambia counties to those who qualify. The focus of the program is to bring testing where it is needed to screen people ages 40-49 years who are at increased risk of prostate cancer and those ages 50-75 who are at average risk.
The mobile clinic will conduct prostate cancer screenings by collecting a blood sample for a PSA test. Those who qualify for the program will receive a follow-up on their PSA test results. Participants with abnormal PSA results will be referred to USA Health Urology for additional testing, which is covered by the program.
Contact Sonya Starks at 251-445-9600 or spstarks@health.southalabama.edu for more information about LA POP events or if you are interested in having the mobile clinic come to your community.
USA Health Experts Discuss Advanced Treatment Options
USA Health urologist Christopher Keel, M.D., and radiation oncologist Adam Huddleston, M.D., are part of the multidisciplinary prostate cancer team at the Mitchell Cancer Institute. They sat down with FOX10's Lenise Ligon to talk about prostate cancer and what you can do to limit risk factors.
African American Men and Prostate Cancer
African American men are more likely than white men to be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime. But screening helps catch prostate cancer early, when it is more treatable.
Cancer Genetic Testing
USA Health has the only board-certified genetic counselor in the region who works with patients and families who may be diagnosed with or genetically predisposed toward certain cancers.
Clinical Trials in Prostate Cancer
Advances in cancer care come through clinical trials. Find out about our clinical trials program and treatment options that might be available to you.
Prostate Cancer Foundation Patient Guide
The Prostate Cancer Foundation created a guide for any man who has been newly diagnosed, who is in treatment, or who is concerned about a rising PSA. It's also a great resource for loved ones and caregivers.
