First male cancer centre

The United Kingdom's first male cancer centre has opened at the Western General Hospital, Edinburgh. The centre will provide support and information for men with testicular, prostate and penile cancer. Scotland’s First Minister, Jack McConnell, commented: “I am proud that the UK’s first male cancer clinic is in Scotland. But it should also serve as a strong reminder to every Scottish man of our awful record on men’s health and that prevention is better than cure.”
