“Movember” (a combination of the words “moustache” and “November”)was officially recognized in the US in 2007 as a movement to create awareness around men’s health issues, including prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and su***de prevention. Traditionally, men have grown moustaches during the month to create awareness and funding for these and other important men’s issues.
During Movember, Southern VIP is reminding men that they do not have to live with an enlarged prostate. Southern VIP offers Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE), a minimally invasive procedure that provides effective long-term relief from non-cancerous enlarged prostate symptoms without the need for traditional surgery. PAE is a non-surgical image-guided treatment that works by reducing blood flow to the prostate, causing it to shrink naturally over time. The procedure is performed in our Memphis, TN, Union City, TN, Fulton, KY, and Olive Branch locations using a tiny catheter inserted into the arteries that supply the prostate. Patients are seen on an outpatient basis and go home the same day.
Southern VIP’s PAE procedures are performed by Dr. Scott Osborne, a highly experienced interventional radiologist specializing in minimally invasive vascular care, including PAE procedures. To learn more, visit https://southernvip.com/conditions-and-treatments/prostate-artery-embolization/
