By MATT PIKESt. Joseph PostMosaic Life Care in St. Joseph is offering free prostate cancer screenings this weekendDr. Andrew Walker at the Mosaic Cancer Center says getting these prostate screenings is important“The United States Preventative Task Force actually recommended against prostate cancer screening years ago, and what we found was that prostate cancer mortality went up dramatically,” Walker tells reporters.
“So, we’ve learned that if we can diagnose prostate cancer at an earlier stage, we’re more likely to be able to cure more prostate cancers.”The screenings will be held on Friday and Saturday at the Cancer Center.
Walker says holding this free event at Mosaic is two-fold“One we take the cost factor out of this for those in the community,” Walker says.
The event will run from 4 to 7pm on Friday and 8 to 11am on Saturday.
