💙 September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men, but the good news is that early detection saves lives. Regular screenings can catch it before symptoms even appear — giving men more time, more health, and more moments with the people they love.

This month, we’re shining a light on the importance of men’s health. If you’re 50+ (or younger with a family history), talk to your doctor about when screening is right for you.

👉 A simple conversation could make all the difference.

Let’s spread awareness, encourage action, and support the men in our lives. To learn more about preventative screenings, visit http://ascn.io/6183ffz1L

: Another milestone at Ascension Sacred Heart! 👏 Dr. Christopher Ellington, our thoracic surgeon, recently performed the region’s first ION + da Vinci single anesthetic lobectomy—a major advancement for lung cancer care. 🫁

💡 What does that mean for OUR patients? It allows Dr. Ellington to diagnose and remove a lung tumor in one minimally invasive procedure, under a single anesthesia. That means fewer procedures, faster recovery, and earlier treatment.

We’re honored to bring this level of innovation close to home and are thankful for the skill of our care teams and our partners at Intuitive. 💙 Schedule care with Dr. Ellington today: http://ascn.io/61894Q2wv
