Community Commitment - Giving Back
Commitment to the Community is a Part of Everything We Do
Our mission drives every aspect of our organization. At Tennessee Urology, we strive to make a positive difference in the life of every patient. One of our core values is to support and give back to the communities in which we serve.
We Do So in Several Ways:
- Prostate Cancer programs including free screenings and support groups.
- Community education programs which include free educational seminars.
- Employee engagement – All of our employees get involved in community activities through various company-sponsored events.
The Race to End Prostate Cancer
Tennessee Urology’s signature community event is the ZERO Prostate
Cancer Run/Walk, honoring
Dr. Sanford Siegel, Chairman of United Urology Group. Dr. Siegel started the race in 2007
at Chesapeake Urology in Maryland to raise research funds and awareness
for the disease that affects hundreds of thousands of men each year. More
than a decade later, the race expanded from one event in Baltimore, Maryland
to 43 cities around the country.
Money raised through the event goes to provide free prostate cancer screenings to at-risk men throughout the community. Money also goes to support prostate cancer research and advocacy and patient assistance programs efforts through our non-profit partner, ZERO-The End of Prostate Cancer.
