Canada has over 80 Prostate Cancer Support Groups that meet once a month. This Richmond group in British Columbia is founded in 2013 by volunteers and focused on providing help to Chinese-speaking men, but everyone is welcome.

Join us for the professional presentation and talk to other men and family members who have been dealing with prostate cancer for weeks, months or even years.

No registration is required and all ages are welcome. Please swipe your Seniors Facility Pass ($36/year for seniors 55+ or spouses) or pay a $5 drop-in fee at the front desk when arriving for each session. Or join the free Zoom meeting at the same time.

傳統中醫藥與前列腺 Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Prostate Health

由於很多人查詢中醫與中藥可否治療前列腺(攝護腺)與泌尿系統疾病,因此搜集有關網頁方便大家參考。
有關醫療建議請與你的家庭醫生和專科醫生查詢。有關中醫藥治療和食療亦請與你的執照中醫師咨詢。
Since many inquire whether Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can treat prostate and urinary system diseases, we have collected some relevant web pages for your reference. 
For medical advice please consult with your family doctor and specialist. Please get in touch with your licensed Chinese medicine practitioner regarding Chinese medicine treatment and dietary therapy.
