Men’s health encompasses a wide range of conditions, some of which are particularly prevalent in the male population. Our tailored approach aims to provide effective prevention and management strategies to promote overall well-being.

Cardiovascular Health: Cardiovascular disease is a significant concern, often linked to lifestyle factors. These can lead to serious conditions like heart attacks and strokes. At Oyster Point Family Practice, we emphasize the importance of regular heart health monitoring, including blood pressure and cholesterol checks, to help our patients maintain optimal cardiovascular health.

Prostate Health: We offer regular screenings, such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests, to aid in the early detection and management of prostate-related issues, ensuring our patients receive timely and effective care.

Testicular Cancer: Although less common, testicular cancer primarily affects younger men aged 15 to 35. We educate our patients on the importance of regular self-examinations.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Beyond quality-of-life concerns, ED may signal underlying health issues like diabetes or cardiovascular disease. Our practice offers guidance on addressing lifestyle factors and provides medical advice to help manage ED effectively.

Diabetes Management: Type 2 diabetes poses a substantial risk and can lead to numerous complications if not properly managed. We stress the importance of regular blood sugar monitoring and a healthy lifestyle to prevent and manage diabetes.

Lung Health: For smokers, lung health is a critical concern. Conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer are significant risks. Oyster Point Family Practice supports patients in smoking cessation efforts, recognizing it as a vital step toward better lung health.

Overall, we believe that regular health check-ups, a balanced diet, regular exercise, and mental health awareness are integral components of managing these common health issues. Our goal at Oyster Point Family Practice is to empower men to lead longer, healthier lives through personalized and comprehensive care.

At Oyster Point Family Practice, we prioritize comprehensive health care for men at every stage of life, emphasizing the importance of preventive health screenings. Our dedicated team is here to guide you through the necessary screenings to detect potential health issues early and maintain optimal well-being.

In Your 20s and 30s: Establishing a solid health foundation is crucial. Our primary care physicians offer regular check-ups to monitor blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and body mass index (BMI). We also provide screenings for sexually transmitted infections for those who are sexually active. A one-time HIV screening is recommended for individuals aged 15 to 65, with more frequent testing available for those at higher risk.

In Your 40s: Heart health becomes a focus. We continue to monitor blood pressure and cholesterol levels and may suggest diabetes screenings if you have risk factors such as a family history or being overweight. Our physicians will discuss prostate cancer screening options, especially for those with a family history or higher risk factors, including African descent.

In Your 50s: Comprehensive screenings become more pertinent. We recommend colonoscopies starting between ages 45 to 50, depending on your personal risk factors and guidelines. Discussions about prostate cancer screenings, including the PSA test, will be tailored to your needs. Regular heart and diabetes screenings remain a priority.

In Your 60s and Beyond: Our focus shifts to maintaining your quality of life and independence. We offer osteoporosis screenings, particularly for those with a history of fractures or certain medication use. Regular eye exams are essential to check for glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration. Continued screenings for heart disease, diabetes, and cancer are customized to your health status and history.
