June is Men’s Health Month: Take Charge of Your Health

At Steinberg Diagnostic Medical Imaging (SDMI), we believe every man deserves the chance to live a long, healthy life. June is Men’s Health Month—a time to raise awareness, encourage prevention, and empower men to take proactive steps for their physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

Strength Comes from Action

Taking care of your health isn’t just about you—it’s about the people who care about you too. Your family, your friends, your coworkers—they all want to see you at your best. This month, we’re reminding men everywhere: Strength isn’t about ignoring warning signs—it’s about taking action.

Here’s how you can start:

Prostate Cancer: Early Detection Can Save Lives

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men, but here’s the good news: It’s highly treatable when caught early.
Talk to your doctor about whether a prostate screening is right for you—especially if you’re over 50 or have a family history of cancer.

If your doctor recommends imaging or further screening, ask your doctor or specialist for a referral to SDMI. We’re here to provide the answers you need.

Protect Your Heart: Small Habits Make a Big Difference

Heart disease remains the leading cause of death for men in the U.S., accounting for 1in every 5 deaths.
The good news? Many risk factors are within your control. Focus on:

• Regular exercise
• Heart-healthy eating
• Stress management
• Getting regular checkups and screenings

If your doctor wants imaging to assess your heart health, ask your doctor for a referral to SDMI.

Mental Health Is Health

This Men’s Health Month, we’re also shining a light on mental health.
Men are 3.5 times more likely to die by suicide than women, yet many struggle in silence.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or hopeless, please know: Reaching out for help is a sign of strength—not weakness. Talk to your doctor, a counselor, or someone you trust.

Know Your Numbers, Know Your Risk

Did you know that:

• 55% of men report not getting regular health screenings?
• Nearly 40% of adult men in the U.S. are living     with obesity, a key risk factor for heart disease and diabetes?
• Most men don’t know their family history when it comes to urological issues     or cancer?

Knowledge is power. Simple screenings and conversations with your doctor can reveal risks you didn’t know existed.

Small Steps, Big Impact

You don’t have to overhaul your life overnight. Start with one small step this month:

✔️ Schedule your annual checkup
✔️ Get screened for prostate cancer, heart health, and/or cholesterol
✔️ Talk openly about mental health
✔️ Encourage a friend, brother, or coworker to do the same

Do it for yourself. Do it for the people who love you.

At SDMI, we’re here to support your health journey—every step of the way.

If your doctor recommends imaging as part of your preventive care, ask your doctor or specialist for a referral to SDMI. We’ll take care of you with the compassion and quality care you deserve.

Your health matters. This month, make it a priority.
