Make Appointments & Get Care
What is Prostate Cancer?
Prostate cancer is one of the most treatable cancers if detected early. The exact causes are unknown, but certain known risk factors include age, race, family history, and dietary habits. As men age, the prostate gland naturally enlarges, making it challenging to distinguish between cancerous and non-cancerous growths.
