Steve Smith, Waste Lead at Spire Parkway Hospital, and Dr Gerwyn Rees, Consultant Anaesthetist, proudly took part in a 100-mile fundraising cycle ride this month in support of the Matt Gallagher Foundation. 🚴‍♂️

🎉 Steve’s team, ‘Born Ready’ cycled 40 laps of the 2.5-mile Goodwood Motor Circuit and raised an incredible £2,000 - helping the foundation provide vital financial, emotional, and practical support to families affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

The Matt Gallagher Foundation was established in 2023 after Matt’s diagnosis at Spire Parkway Hospital, with the mission to improve specialist care, fund research, and provide essential equipment for those living with MND.

We are extremely proud of Steve and Dr Rees for representing Spire Parkway Hospital and making a real difference for such an important cause. 💚

September is Urology Awareness Month in the UK, so we're taking the opportunity to raise awareness of prostate health.

In this video, Spire Healthcare patient, Darren, shares his experience after a routine annual check-up through work revealed that his PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) levels were high. With no symptoms and no warning signs, he was soon diagnosed with prostate cancer.

Darren opens up about the moment his life changed — from the fear and shock of diagnosis to the unwavering support he received from Spire Healthcare and Dr Daniel Fox, Consultant in Clinical Oncology.

Now cancer-free, Darren shares what it meant to ring the bell at the end of treatment and reflects on the journey that brought him there. His story is a moving reminder of the importance of early detection, support, and expert care in overcoming prostate cancer.

✅ If you're over 50, get your PSA levels checked — even if you feel fine. Early detection saves lives.

🙏 Thank you to Darren for bravely sharing his prostate cancer journey.

⭐ Spire Cheshire Hospital are raising awareness on prostate cancer this Urology Awareness Month ⭐

In the UK, one in eight men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Four out of ten men are diagnosed late which impacts their survival rate as compared to those diagnosed earlier.

The recent news sadly announced Joe Biden's prostate cancer diagnosis, which raised questions about the condition.

To help shed light on this, we spoke to Spire Cheshire Hospital’s Consultant Urological Surgeon, Mr Ramandeep Chalokia who explains what prostate cancer is, its common symptoms, and available treatment options.

Mr Chalokia said, “Prostate cancer affects the prostate gland which is a part of the male reproductive system that contributes to the volume of the semen secretion. It is a walnut-shaped gland which lies underneath the bladder. The tube which passes the urine out of the body called the urethra passes through the centre of the gland, hence benign enlargement and cancer of the prostate can result in various urinary symptoms.”

Some key symptoms include:
🔹 Frequency of urination
🔹 Poor flow of urine
🔹 Waking up at night to pass urine
🔹 Benign enlargement of the gland
🔹 Raised blood test (done for screening of prostate cancer)

Mr Chalokia commented on treatments for prostate cancer, “These include monitoring patients with serial blood tests and repeat MRI scans, surgery or radiotherapy with hormones."
