MOVEMBER focuses on men's health particularly mental health, suicide prevention, prostate and testicular cancer and spreading awareness about the same.
Men’s health is in crisis. Men are dying on average 5 years earlier than women, and for largely preventable reasons.
A growing number of men – around 10.8M globally – are facing life with a prostate cancer diagnosis. Globally, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men. And across the world, one man dies by suicide every minute of every day, with males accounting for 75% of all suicides.
MOVEMBER also looks at mental health through a male lens, focusing on prevention, early intervention and health promotion, making men take action to be mentally well, and are supported by those around them.
During this month, take a stand and prevent men's health issues by talking and discussing. Come and talk to our GPs. Make a booking for a general checkup and discuss any issues that you have, whether it is physical or mental health related. We offer a wide range of services in our facility which includes chronic disease management, counselling with qualified clinical psychologist, prostate checks, 45-49yr health assessments and 75yr + health assessments.
