HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital highlights Men's Health Month
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (WMBB) – June marks the annual National Men's Health Month. To recognize this month, HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital seeks to raise awareness for a condition that impacts millions of men: benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or enlarged prostate. According to a news release, the hospital offers Aquablation therapy, a minimally invasive treatment that uses the power of water delivered with robotic precision to remove excess prostate tissue. This approach, which broke through in 2024, is said to be highly effective and uniquely tailored to each patient. Because of this, this therapy offers long-term symptom relief with a lower risk of complications. According to HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital, they have successfully treated dozens of patients since implementing this technology. As a commitment to men's health, the hospital is encouraging men in the community to speak with their primary care provider or a urologist, as early evaluation can make a significant difference. 'Men's Health Month is an important time to remind men to take charge of their well-being,' said Chase Christianson, CEO of HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital. 'We're proud to offer innovative solutions that not only improve health outcomes but also restore confidence and peace of mind for our patients.' For more information, click here.

Panama City launches CivicReady text alert system
BAY COUNTY, Fla. (WMBB) – CivicReady is part of Panama City's initiative to communicate more efficiently and frequently with citizens. It allows the city to geo-target specific parts of the city so they can send notices directly to areas affected. Alert Bay, released in 2017, has similar features. It sends emergency notifications and utilities alerts to users who sign up for text alerts. But City Manager Jonathan Hayes insists CivicReady is not a duplicate service. Super Bowl Sunday road safety tips 'What we've done with Civic Ready and what Alert Bay does, they're really two different functions and two different purposes. We're not necessarily highlighting large broad-scale emergencies. This is more for city operations,' Panama City City Manager Jonathan Hayes said. CivicReady will cost the city $6,000 annually to run. Hayes says the city included the cost of the communication system in the city budget. Girl Scout Cookie season begins with mega drop at HCA Florida Gulf Coast Hospital 'It turns out that Civic Ready, a company and program that we already have a relationship with, allowed this to be an option just as an add-on. Very small fee to significantly increase the communications again with our citizens and business owners,' Hayes said. Teams have been working on the project for more than 5 months. They will work with the city's Public Works Department to communicate updates. Once users sign up for alerts, they will begin receiving updates. Residents can sign up for Civic Ready alerts by texting 'PanamaCity' to 38276. Citizens can also sign up for neighborhood group alerts to zero in on a specific area. Panama City will continue posting relevant updates on their website and social media. To learn more about how to join CivicReady, click here. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
