Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. About 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed during his lifetime. There are no signs of early prostate cancer, which is why screening is so important. By getting screened, you can detect it early, when treatment is more likely to be successful.

We offer a blood test to screen for prostate cancer at our Fort Worth Facility and on our Mobile Screening Clinic. Schedule an appointment by calling 817.288.9970. All screening services are free for uninsured men and those who qualify. If you have current prostate issues or prior diagnosis of cancer, please call 817.288.9970 to speak to a nurse navigator.

Whether you’ve just been diagnosed, you’re in the middle of treatment, or you’re starting recovery, you don’t have to face it alone. We offer a support group led by a registered nurse that is open to current and former prostate cancer patients.

The support group meets the second Monday of every month from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at Moncrief Cancer Institute.

Who Should Get Screened

  • Prostate cancer screening is recommended for men of average risk beginning at age 50.
  • We recommend screening earlier if you are high risk or very high risk.
  • You are considered high risk if you are: African American or have a close relative diagnosed with prostate cancer before the age of 65. You should begin screening at age 45.
  • You are considered very high risk if you: have more than one close relative diagnosed before the age of 65. You should begin screening at age 40.
