Gauging Your Prostate Health

The prostate gland is a sexual organ, and the disease and its treatment can have a devastating impact on a man's sexual health. PSA testing and prostate-cancer screening are controversial — the general medical community sometimes withholds proper screening to keep costs down.

Obsidian believes cost reduction should not be the primary concern when screening for a potentially life-threatening malignancy. Our comprehensive technologies include Prostarix testing and advanced PSA derivatives — PSA velocity, PSA density, percentage of free PSA, and complexed-PSA testing — which greatly improve diagnostic accuracy and guard against unnecessary biopsies.

Should further testing be required, we offer concierge-level prostate biopsies to minimize discomfort and improve accuracy. As part of our advanced genetic testing, we use one of the world's foremost experts on prostate pathology to examine tissue samples.
