September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month

The Canadian Cancer Society prostate cancer statistics have now changed to 1 in 7 Canadian men.

Please note the info graphic in the link below:

http://prostatecancer.ca/Prostate-Cancer/About-Prostate-Cancer/Statistics

Please note that the Canadian Cancer Society has revised the determining probability of developing cancer. The lifetime probability of developing prostate cancer has been updated to one in seven men.  This change is primarily attributed to the change in methodology and not to changes in risk.  (Reference: Canadian Cancer Statistics Advisory Committee. Canadian Cancer Statistics 2017. Toronto, ON: Canadian Cancer Society; 2017)

Organizer of 17th Annual Pacific Northwest Prostate Cancer Conference

The PCSC Program is a comprehensive survivorship program developed at the Vancouver Prostate Centre for prostate cancer patients, their partners, and family from the time of initial diagnosis to end-of-life care. Located at the Gordon & Leslie Diamond Health Care Centre at Vancouver General Hospital, the PCSC Program is a clinical, educational, research-based approach to care, addressing the challenges of decision-making and coping along the entire disease trajectory to serve both the patient and their partner's physical and psychological needs.
