     Senator Jack M. Martins (R-Mineola), in conjunction with the Integrated Medical Foundation and Shiel Medical Laboratory, will be sponsoring a free prostate cancer PSA test program in Port Washington. The free PSA blood tests will be provided on Tuesday, October 28th between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm at the Port Washington Library (1 Library Drive, Port Washington).

     The Integrated Medical Foundation’s guidelines for the program are as follows:

     • Open to all men between the ages of 40 and over who have not previously been diagnosed with prostate cancer, regardless of whether or not they have insurance;

     • Each patient will receive a free PSA blood test;

     • Men who will be participating in the program must bring a photo ID containing an address, such as a driver’s license;

     • Patients must bring a self addressed, stamped envelope to be notified of the PSA blood test results.

     Appointments for the free PSA blood tests will be scheduled on a first come, first served basis. Men who would like to schedule an appointment for a free prostate cancer PSA test should call Senator Martins’ office at 516-746-5924.
