Staying on top of your health takes more than knowledge of warning signs. It takes time, energy, and persistence. Sometimes it takes a closer look and series of tests. But most importantly, it takes partnership with a highly skilled team of men's health care experts ready to address your needs and concerns. Our men's health specialists use the most advanced diagnostic tools for common health concerns in men, including:
- Colorectal Cancer
- Diabetes
- Heart and Vascular
- Kidney Stones and Disease
- Lung Cancer
- Orthopedics and Sports Medicine
- Osteoporosis
- Primary Care
- Prostate Cancer
- Stroke
- Testicular Cancer
- Testosterone-Related Energy Conditions
- Urology and Reproductive Health
- A Connected Network of Men’s Health Care

Men can feel the pressure of providing for their families above all other things — with the responsibility to provide health insurance coverage for the entire family at the top of their list. They tend to value their jobs above their own immediate health needs and delay seeing a doctor even when there are signs of a health problem. When the budget gets tight, men often forsake their own health insurance coverage first. In fact, you’d be surprised at the statistics — men are far more likely to be uninsured than women.
Remember the old adage, “You must first take care of yourself before you can take care of anyone else?” Regular check-ins with your primary care physician (PCP) positively impact your whole health, improving your physical, mental and spiritual well-being — and allowing you to best care for your family. With our multidisciplinary approach and network of care, we’ll work together to help you feel whole.
It’s a collaborative effort of our world-class physicians, nurses and specialty providers all working together to provide you expert men’s health care at every stage and for any condition. We listen to you, respect your time, compare notes, and discuss the details. So no matter what’s on your chart or on your mind, we’re here for you and committed to your whole health.
The Importance of Whole Person Care for Men
As a man, you have unique health care needs that affect your body, mind and spirit. Make it a goal to understand your current health and your risk factors for certain health conditions. It’s up to you to protect your whole health — and stay well for many more years to come.
Men in the U.S. are more likely to die prematurely than women for a variety of reasons, from biological risk factors to lifestyle choices. Compared to women, men are also less likely to see a doctor for preventive care (and sometimes even for more serious conditions). What you may forget is that your lifestyle choices also affect your loved ones, your community and even your job. Make a commitment to being more proactive about your care so you can enjoy your coming years with health and vitality.
Whether you’re a father, grandfather, husband, brother or son, it’s important you have the guidance and resources you need. That’s why we’re here to support you at every age and stage, not just when you’re sick. From support groups and spiritual care to counseling and fitness classes, we work to ensure you have what you need to live your best life.
