Taking care of your health doesn’t have to be complicated. At Desert Oasis Healthcare (DOHC), our physicians focus on preventive care, early detection, and coordinated treatment designed specifically for men.

Why Men's Health Matters?

Men are often less likely to seek preventive medical care, which can delay the detection of serious health conditions. Routine screenings and regular wellness visits allow providers to identify risk factors early and provide treatment before complications develop.

Recommended Screenings for Men

Regular screenings help detect disease early — often before symptoms appear.

Men should discuss individualized timelines with their provider, but general guidelines include:

  • Annual Wellness Exams
  • Colorectal (Colon) Cancer Screening (Age 45)
  • Cholesterol Checks
  • Skin Cancer Routine Check
  • Prostate Cancer
  • Cardiovascular Health

Preventive Screenings for Men

Here are some key preventive screenings men are encouraged to include in their health plan, including the recommended age to begin the screenings:

  • Colorectal (Colon) Cancer: 45 years old
  • Prostate Cancer: 50 years old
  • Lung Cancer: depends on lifestyle
  • Skin Cancer: routine checkups recommended

One of the strengths of care at Desert Oasis Healthcare is our coordinated, team-based approach to preventive medicine.

Our care teams work together to ensure patients stay up to date with recommended screenings and follow-up care.

Taking the Next Step

It is always recommended to check with your provider regarding your personal health. Family history, environment, past health habits all play a critical role in when you should be screened.
