Jeff Newman raises awareness about men’s health at Prostate Care Centre event in Joondalup

PROSTATE cancer survivor Jeff Newman says men’s health needed more attention.

“With more men dying each year of prostate cancer than women die of breast cancer, my message is that we need to increase awareness for men’s health in general,” he said.

“I’m particularly encouraged by the educational events that the Prostate Care Centre is also providing to the community.”

Mr Newman, pictured with Martin Blake, Raphael Chee, Wanneroo Mayor Tracey Roberts, Joondalup Mayor Albert Jacob and Ken Michael, attended the official opening of the Prostate Care Centre in Joondalup on August 30.

The Prostate Care Centre is a collaborative initiative between GenesisCare and Perth Radiological Centre at Shenton House, opposite Joondalup Health Campus.

Consultation with the prostate cancer specialist nurse is available free of charge to all men diagnosed with prostate cancer living within the cities of Joondalup or Wanneroo.
