Couldn't get preventive health screening without symptoms

Absolutely frustrating as usual! I requested a routine screening that health information everywhere encourages people to pursue, and instead I was told I need to present with specific concerns first. All I wanted was to have the test done.

Thank you for sharing your concerns, Darren. We understand why this has been frustrating. Testing for prostate issues within general practice follows national clinical guidance, which means certain symptoms or risk factors need to be present before a PSA test can be arranged. This is to ensure the test is appropriate, accurate, and safe, as it can sometimes lead to further investigations that may not be necessary. If you’re worried about your prostate health or have questions about whether a test might still be suitable for you, please contact the surgery and ask to discuss it with a clinician.
