HOW WE CAN HELP
Diagnosed with prostate cancer? Exploring your treatment options? Looking for information or support?
You are not alone. The Saskatoon Prostate Cancer Support Group is a group of men and their spouses/partners who are living with prostate cancer.
We're here to help men and their families navigate the journey of prostate cancer, from diagnosis, through treatments and recovery.
All of us have walked in your shoes and we can provide informed help. If you or someone close to you has been given a prostate cancer diagnosis, we are here to help you through it.
Connect with us and we will journey with you.

ABOUT US

CONNECT WITH US
It can be quite overwhelming when you receive a prostate cancer diagnosis. Sometimes you want to talk to someone who has gone through the cancer journey.
​
The monthly support group is a great place to listen to other people’s stories. You can also talk about your own experience and ask questions there. We do not meet in the summer months.
​
You may also want to talk to someone one on one. These men have all had prostate cancer and have volunteered to share their experiences. They are there to listen to you, answer questions and share their stories. If you want to talk to someone fill out the form below. We are a volunteer group and we try to monitor these messages closely. We will get back to you as soon as possible.
​
Due to legal requirements, we are not there to provide advice or recommendations on medical treatments.
