PSA Testing - Government Says NO

from Tuesday Talk Show's Podcast · host The Tuesday Talk Show

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has just announced that males should not have routine PSA tests for the early detection of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer, by the way, is the number 3 leading cause of cancer death in men. (U.S. government statistic)  Who IS this Task Force?  How good or bad is their track record in making recommendations to the public?  What did they base this decision on?  Is it a valid decision?  What is the response of the medical community?  Please join Lindsay and Dr. Blanchet as they discuss this very important health issue.  Listen to Dr. Blanchet's response to this government recommendation.
