A Bioscanner in every Pharmacy

We Friends of Prostate Sufferers (FOPS) hosted a Prostate Roadshow there last June with a tripartite Consultants Forum of David Baxter Smith, Alvan Pope and Julian Shah who first explained the prostate and then answered questions for over an hour which encouraged 150 men to give blood for PSA testing.
