As a celebrated TV personality, journalist, meteorologist, and author, Al Roker is a familiar face for so many of us.
That's why when Al announced his prostate cancer diagnosis at the end of 2020, it created many waves and galvanized a large outpouring of support from around the world.
In this interview with The Patient Story founder, Stephanie Chuang, Al opens up about his patient experience and especially about how important it is for men to get screened for prostate cancer through the PSA test (and digital exam). He's also passionate and vocal about the importance of African-American men being vigilant in particular, as they are 50% more likely to get diagnosed and 2x as likely to die from prostate cancer compared to Caucasian men.
