Phoebe will hold its annual free men’s health fair called "Shop Talk: No Man Left Behind," during Father’s Day weekend on Saturday, June 15.  

It’s sponsored by Albany State University, in collaboration with Albany Technical College, Esthetics 101, Flint River Fresh, and Morehouse School of Medicine. It will be held at the Billy C. Black Building on Albany State University's East Campus, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., with screenings available from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. 

"We believe that 'Shop Talk: No Man Left Behind' captures the spirit of camaraderie and support that is essential for promoting men's health. This event provides a platform for open discussions about men's health issues and encourages men to take proactive steps toward a healthier lifestyle," said Keisa Mansfield, Community Outreach Manager for the Phoebe Cancer Center.   

The event offers a unique opportunity for men to prioritize their health and well-being while celebrating Father's Day. The title emphasizes the importance of candid conversations and community support in ensuring that no man is left behind when it comes to his health. 

"We are committed to ensuring that every man in our community has access to the resources and support needed to prioritize his health. Through 'Shop Talk: No Man Left Behind,' we aim to create a welcoming environment where men feel comfortable discussing their health concerns and ensuring better health outcomes," said Mansfield.  

Attendees will have access to complimentary screenings for prostate health, blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol. In addition to the screenings, the event will feature informative sessions and resources aimed at empowering men to make informed decisions about their health.
