Men’s Health Services
When it comes to maintaining your good health for the long term, it is essential you factor in preventive care that is geared towards your body's specific needs. Our men's health care services do just that – they focus on the man's anatomy and provide them with effective preventive care measures to keep them healthy for years to come. Our comprehensive range of men's health services include:
Prostate Exam
A prostate exam is a crucial medical procedure for men's health, especially as men get older. Commonly known as a Digital Rectal Exam (DRE), a prostate exam involves a doctor physically examining the prostate gland for signs of abnormality such as enlargement or irregular texture, which could indicate conditions like prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or even prostate cancer. This quick and relatively painless procedure is key in early detection, as most prostate-related conditions are more manageable if diagnosed early. Thus, regular prostate exams are a vital part of preventative health care for men, particularly those over the age of 50 or those at higher risk due to family history or ethnicity.
STI Testing
Regular screening for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is an important part of men's health, acting as a preventive measure to maintain overall well-being. STIs, if left undiagnosed and untreated, can lead to serious complications such as infertility, certain types of cancer, and increased susceptibility to HIV. Regular testing, especially for those who have more than one sexual partner, enables early detection and treatment, reducing the likelihood of these complications. Moreover, it also helps in preventing the spread of these diseases, thus protecting not only individuals but also the broader community.
Sexual Health
Sexual health is an important aspect of a man's overall well-being and unique healthcare needs. One common issue many men face is erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition that can significantly impact quality of life but is often treatable. Our internal medicine doctors can offer a range of treatments, from lifestyle modifications to medications and therapy sessions, designed specifically to manage ED and similar conditions. These services don't just focus on treating the physical symptoms of sexual dysfunction, but they also provide support and counseling to address any underlying concerns.
