Our mission...
The mission of the Men's Health Centre is to bring to men's
health a new refreshing approach where men feel free to
explore all aspects of their personal health and well-being
in a setting of the highest professional standards and
current knowledge.
|
The Centre...
The Centre promotes a multi-disciplanary team approach to
men's health through the use of expert-panel derived
protocols. The professional staff are MD's and PhD's,
specialists in urology, andrology and counselling to offer a
complete male health programme suitable for all men over the
age of 35. |
Our Patients...
It is an interesting fact that there are nearly ten million
"baby boomers" (men and women between the ages of 35 and 56)
living in Canada. While this figure comprises only one-third
of our population, baby boomers control 75% of the nations
assets and represent 41% of consumer demand. It is in this
affluent group as well as the generation above them that we
are seeing so many of the so-called lifestyle diseases. It
is disconcerting and rather harrowing in fact that the
disease with the highest increase in incidence in the past
few years has been Type II diabetes, almost exclusively
linked to diet and exercise with more than 55% of us bein
overweight. It is in this age group that andropause is
prevalent too. |
