MEN’S HEALTH
We are acutely aware of the increased interest men are taking in their own health, and aim to provide a comprehensive range of services to match that interest. Whether it’s testicular cancer awareness in younger men or prostatic issues in older men, we can advise and investigate as necessary.
However, we always remain aware that the biggest cause of premature illness and death in Irish men remains heart disease, so don’t be surprised if we bring the conversation around to your diet, your cholesterol or your lifestyle.
