Prostate cancer disproportionately affects Black men; the reason for this phenomenon is unclear. The role of the health-care provider is important in screening for prostate cancer, advising on treatment and ensuring completeness of therapy. Cultural competency is necessary in health-care providers as, for most men in Europe, Australasia and the USA, the ethnicity and/or race of the urologist will be discordant with that of the patient.

患有前列腺癌的黑人男性与其医疗保健提供者之间的关系

前列腺癌不成比例地影响黑人男性；这种现象的原因尚不清楚。医疗保健提供者在前列腺癌筛查、治疗建议和确保治疗完整性方面发挥着重要作用。医疗保健提供者需要具备文化能力，因为对于欧洲、大洋洲和美国的大多数男性来说，泌尿科医生的种族和/或种族与患者的种族和/或种族不一致。
