Go blue for the men in your life
Father's Day is a good time to remind yourself and/or the men around you to be up to date with prostate checks.
As with all cancers, early detection gives you the best chance of being cured. The first step in fighting prostate cancer is getting checked by your GP - a message the Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ emphasises as part of Blue September.
Mercy Radiology is donating $5,000.00 and taking part in Blue September. Check out our leadership team - they look great in blue! Please join with us in the fight against prostate cancer and donate today.
