Wait, what? "Men do not have the challenges women have in regards to staying healthy." Since when? Men's life expectancy is 8 years less than that of women. With the exception of breast cancer, men suffer at higher rates of virtually every disease common to both sexes. Heart disease. Lung disease. Cancer. Kidney disease. Gastrointestinal diseases.

A men's health center should be designed to address the whole man, just like most women's health centers are designed to do. A perfect example is the Iris Cantor Men's Health Center in NYC.

@bde2025 I looked up the Irish Cantor Men's Health Center in NYC and all of the physicians are urologists and much (not all) of the care is pelvic floor and urology-related. From what @colleenyoung explained it appears to me that Urology at Mayo Clinic while using a different name does cover many of the same areas as the one in NYC.

I have been a patient at the Mayo Clinic Menopause and Sexual Health Clinic.

Are you looking for something similar for men? If yes, what would this include?
