Audiology Associates at 1428 Northlake Drive in Prestonsburg. On Tuesday, June 13th, Highlands ARH in Prestonsburg hosted a men's health fair open to men of all ages. Participants could learn about potential health risks and how to identify them as well as sit down for medical screenings. No matter the age, it's important for men to keep track of their medical status and receive help when needed. Typically, men have a shorter lifespan than women. There's a lot of debate over this, but one of the theories right now is that men typically wait a lot later in life to start getting these preventative things checked out. So I think an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure. If you catch a lot of this stuff early, this is easily treated and managed. And so I'd strongly encourage every guy starting at age 40, you've got a bunch of screenings to start going through. Some of them's a little inconvenient, but it could save you a lot of you and your family a lot of pain and grief in the future. Highlands offers much more in terms of medical services. Patients can receive consultation and additional medical screenings at their facility. This is a big part of it. There's a lot of other screenings for men's health. Personally, I was affected with my father had colon cancer and probably about seven or eight years ago. And he waited until 60 to have his colonoscopy. Yeah, I'm ready. And so they really, you should, as Dr. Minix was referring to earlier, you should try to get that at age 45. And my first one was at age 30, just due to, you know, my father having a big diagnosis of colon cancer. So big thing in men and one thing that we're available to do here at Highlands ARH. Obviously, it's colon screenings, amongst other things. We have a plethora of specialties here from cardiology to neurology. And obviously one of the main things that preventative measures is getting things checked just like the blood work we're doing here today. So hope everybody can come out. And if you have any questions, contact one of us. We'll be happy to help you here at Highlands. Oh, reporting from out in top news. I'm Nick Colum.
