Men’s Health Matters
by Maurice D. Graham, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC
Men are more likely to put off routine health care appointments for screenings which often leads to a less healthy lifestyle. Men are also more likely to delay seeing a health care provider for symptoms of a health problem that could lead to conditions affecting men such as heart disease, prostate, testicular, and colon cancer along with osteoporosis and nutrition issues.
With the glaring issues of Men’s health, Mr. Graham has recently started his clinic that focuses on primary care and men’s health. NP-VIP Concierge Medical clinic provides comprehensive health care in your home, over your phone or home computer with the use of a HIPAA-approved telemedicine app. Telemedicine is the use of telecommunication and information technology to provide clinical health care from a distance. It has been used to overcome distance barriers and to improve access to medical services that would often not be consistently available in distant rural communities or busy lifestyles.
Mr. Graham started his medical career of as a medical assistant 26 years ago when he joined the United States Army and served a total of 22 years of active duty service. During his tenure in the Army, he became a Registered Nurse, graduating from Alcorn State University in 2006 with his BSN and Walden University in 2015 with an MSN as a Nurse Practitioner and is currently pursuing his DNP. Mr. Graham is also a Duke-Johnson & Johnson Nurse Leadership Fellow at Duke University. As an Advanced Practice Nurse, Mr. Graham has worked in areas such as Primary Care, Urgent Care, and Critical Care. With the variety of experience, Mr. Graham has focused on Primary Care with a focus on Men’s health. Research has shown that men, their health has for the most, has taken a back seat to women’s health. Mr. Graham’s focus is on prevention and early detection.
