‘We know that early detection saves lives,' said Dr Karan Wadhwa, consultant urological surgeon at Phoenix Hospital Group.

‘Our new Prostate MRI Cancer Screening Service empowers men to take control of their health by offering advanced diagnostics, rapid-results, and consultant-led guidance every step of the way.'

No GP referral is required to access the service, and results are delivered promptly to ensure patients can make informed decisions about their health without delay.

Dr Wadhwa added: ‘Every element of the service is designed around patient convenience and clinical excellence. All screenings are led by an expert team, supported by the latest MRI imaging technology. Appointments can be conducted in person or virtually, and results are communicated clearly and efficiently, giving patients confidence and peace of mind.'
