The Man Van is coming to Wainwright Stampede on Saturday, June 21, 2025.

If you have not heard about THE MAN VAN – it is a free PSA test for men!

What is the MAN VAN?

THE MAN VAN is Canada’s only mobile men’s health clinic, traveling throughout Calgary and rural Alberta educating men on the importance of early prostate cancer awareness and their overall health

What does it do?

The Van provides on-the-spot Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) blood tests to men as well as blood pressure, blood glucose and waist circumference measurements at select clinics.

Who can visit the MAN VAN?

Men aged 40-70 who are not currently being seen by a doctor for any prostate problems are eligible for a baseline PSA blood test.


What can I expect when I visit the MAN VAN?

• When a man visits the MAN VAN, he is greeted by a host, often a prostate cancer survivor, who explains the PSA test and its importance. From there, he will visit one of our medical professionals who will draw ½ teaspoon of blood from his vein. Within one week, he will receive the PSA results in the mail. If the result is higher than the recommended level, the Prostate Cancer Centre will call the participant to discuss follow-up.

• There is no health care needed to visit the MAN VAN. It is a free service for men, funded entirely through private donations and corporate sponsorships. Men visiting the MAN VAN visit often takes less than 10 minutes and there is no appointment necessary.

Why is it Important?

One in six men in Alberta will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime, but when caught early it is very treatable. A PSA test is a simple blood test that may help in early detection. The Prostate Cancer Centre recommends men should have a baseline PSA test starting at age 40. Health measurements such as blood pressure, blood sugar and waist circumference are often good indicators of a man’s health status and are very closely linked to some of the main health issues facing men, such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer and obesity.
