About Project Peacock
As a South African Public Health NGO we focus on providing equitable men's health and cancer care. As a partner at Groote Schuur hospital, we face a huge burden of patients with prostate cancer. Many of these patients wait for months for a date for their definitive treatment, significantly impacting their changes of surviving this disease.
The current waiting list for non-urgent urology case is about a year. And at present the only therapeutic options available to prostate cancer patients is surgery or radiotherapy.
​
Thanks to our efforts, Groote Schuur Hospital is the only state institution in South Africa able to offer Brachytherapy, a minimally invasive curative option giving patients a fighting chance.
