Don’t Let Physical Health Affect

It may come as no surprise that adults with a medical illness are more likely to experience depression. The reverse is also true: People of all ages with depression are at higher risk of developing certain physical illnesses

If you or your family has delayed care, act now and start with Men’s Health Awareness in June! Not only do women see the doctor more often, but they’re also more likely to get routine health screenings. Without these screenings, symptoms of serious health conditions can be potentially overlooked.
