COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - June is Men’s Health Month, and local physicians are encouraging men of all ages to take their health more seriously, especially when it comes to prevention and early screening.

Dr. Jason Liu, an internal medicine physician at Lexington Medical Center, says one of the biggest hurdles in men’s health is simply getting into the doctor’s office. He says preventative care and regular screenings are crucial, not just when symptoms appear, but long before.

In addition to physical health, Dr. Liu emphasized the importance of addressing mental health concerns in men. He added that social connection can play a significant role in maintaining overall health.
