Reside Panama

During National Military Appreciation Month, Pacífica Salud Hospital reaffirms its commitment to the veteran community in Panama through a special educational event focused on men’s health and preventive care for men over the age of 50.

This initiative aims to raise awareness about the importance of preventive screenings, early detection, and overall wellness among male veterans by providing updated healthcare information and educational resources. Through events like these, Pacífica Salud continues promoting preventive medicine, health education, and access to valuable medical guidance for the veteran community in Panama.

Recognized for its innovative healthcare approach and specialized men’s health programs, Pacífica Salud continues to support initiatives that encourage healthier and more informed lifestyles for retirees, veterans, and international residents living in Panama.

A Dedicated Space for Men’s Health

The “Veteran Men’s Health Matters” event will take place on Friday, May 22, 2026, at 9:00 AM at Pacífica Salud Hospital Costa del Este and will feature special guest speaker Dr. Juan Arenas, Urologist, along with important updates for the veteran community.

The educational session will cover essential health topics for men over 50, including:

Prostate health and PSA screening
Preventive healthcare for men over 50
Common urinary symptoms veterans should not ignore
Kidney and bladder health
The importance of early detection and preventive screenings
Open Q&A session with the specialist

This type of initiative reflects Panama’s growing position as a regional hub for specialized men’s healthcare and preventive medicine.

Why Preventive Screenings Matter After 50

As men age, the risks associated with prostate conditions, urinary health issues, and cardiovascular disease increase significantly. Many illnesses develop silently over time, making preventive screenings essential for early diagnosis and effective treatment.

Among the most recommended screenings for men over 50 are:

PSA and prostate evaluations
Lipid profile and cholesterol testing
Blood pressure monitoring
Glucose and diabetes testing
Kidney and urinary health assessments
Routine cardiovascular evaluations

Access to healthcare education and medical specialists can greatly improve quality of life and help prevent chronic illnesses.

Special Benefits for Participants

As part of this special appreciation event for veterans, attendees will receive:

Complimentary lipid profile screening
50% OFF PSA test coupon

Participants will also enjoy coffee, refreshments, and networking opportunities with fellow veterans in the community.
