Memorial Hermann is attuned to the common health conditions and concerns that affect men – from low testosterone and prostate health to heart disease and colorectal cancer to joint pain and lung cancer. We provide health solutions focused on prevention or early diagnosis and treatment of these conditions. We encourage age-appropriate screenings to identify male health issues before they become serious problems.

It’s important to have a partner in managing your health. If you don’t have a regular doctor, we can help you find one.

Preventive Care Resources

“I feel fine. Why should I see a doctor?”

At Memorial Hermann, we get it. You lead a busy life, and finding time to see the doctor isn’t always easy. We also know that preventive care is an important part of living a long and healthy life. That’s why we are here for you with a full range of convenient ways to make your health a priority.

Early detection is the one of the best defenses against illness, and health screenings can help you and your providers identify problems early, when treatments are most successful. The resources below are everything you need to get started.

We make it easy to find a PCP near you and schedule an appointment. The screening guides give you the tools you need to talk to your PCP about which screenings are right for you, so you can optimize your health during each stage of life. With a Memorial Hermann-affiliated PCP, you will also have access to your lab results and visit summaries through the Everyday Well app or website.
