Northwestern Launches First Urology Clinic For Gay, Bisexual Men
"There was just an unmet need for gay and bisexual men, and sexual minority men in general, for urology," said Dr. Channa Amarasekera.
CHICAGO (CBS) — In a groundbreaking new approach, Northwestern University has opened the country’s first ever urology clinic tailored to gay and bisexual men.
We met Dr. Channa Amarasekera and Matthew Curtin as they clicked through two-year-old images that first revealed Curtin’s prostate cancer. “The journey is just so – I just feel very fortunate really to have caught it the way I did,” Curtin said. Northwestern Medicine was able to remove Curtin’s prostate – a huge relief to Curtin, his husband, and other loved ones. And then he started his recovery – in the middle of a pandemic.
