What is a PSA screening?

A PSA screening is a blood test that measures prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels to help detect prostate cancer and other prostate conditions.

Who should get a PSA screening?

Men over 50, or those at higher risk due to family history or other factors, should discuss receiving a prostate screening in Port Charlotte with their doctor.

What do high PSA levels mean?

Elevated PSA levels can indicate prostate cancer, but they may also be caused by an enlarged prostate, infection, or other non-cancerous conditions.

The Science
Behind the Tests

Ordering Labs

When you first visit Gulfview Medical Institute, you and your provider sit down to discuss your concerns regarding your prostate. If we believe lab work is necessary, we prepare you for an in-house blood draw.

Drawing Blood

Once we take your blood sample, we measure your PSA levels, which can indicate potential prostate issues. This can include prostate cancer, which we can treat more effectively if detected early enough.

Testing helps us identify concerns before they become severe and guide appropriate follow-up care if needed. Our team is ready to help you maintain and optimize your health using your results as a blueprint.
