The Moncrief Cancer Institute is starting “Movember,” Men’s Health Awareness Month, with a free blood test to screen for prostate cancer for uninsured men between the ages of 40 to 69.
The tests are vitally important with data suggesting about one in seven men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime.
Prostate cancer has a high cure rate if caught early. The key to early detection is screening as there are no signs of early prostate cancer.
The walk-up screenings are available at Moncrief’s Mobile Screening Clinic from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 1 at Bethlehem Baptist Church at 1188 W. Broad Street in Mansfield.
