Dwight Eubanks was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2022. There was just one problem: no one told him about it. The hairstylist and owner of The Purple Door Salon didn’t learn of his diagnosis until earlier this year.<\/p>\n

Discovering His Diagnosis While Serving Others<\/h2>\n

“My grandfather died from prostate cancer 20-something years ago, and so I was always conscious of my health,” he explained.<\/p>\n

Eubanks was serving in his capacity as one of the organizers of the health fair at his church, demonstrating how easy it was to have one’s PSA numbers checked. Within minutes, he learned his numbers were in the danger zone.<\/p>\n

Understanding PSA Numbers<\/h3>\n

A prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen in the blood. “Normal” PSA ranges vary by age.<\/p>\n

“In general, a PSA level above 4.0 ng\/mL is considered abnormal and may result in a recommendation for prostate biopsy,” according to the National Cancer Institute<\/a> at the National Institutes of Health.<\/p>\n

While working at his church’s health summit, Eubanks learned his PSA level was twice the normal level. It was in the 8s. He had previously been in the 6s, but he was never told.<\/p>\n

“It was really shocking to find out that in 2022, it was diagnosed, but nobody said anything to me,” he continued.<\/p>\n

How Eubanks’ Diagnosis Got Lost in the System<\/h2>\n

The longtime HCP of the frequent face on The Real Housewives of Atlanta<\/em> passed away. Eubanks had no clue his records were in limbo. His new doctor never admitted they didn’t have it. Instead, they pretended they did and asked questions to try to fill in the blanks.<\/p>\n

“My doctor didn’t come out of the gate and tell me that he didn’t have my records,” he said. “Nor did my insurance offer to provide me with any information, claiming they didn’t have anything either.”<\/p>\n

However, Eubanks was fortunate enough to find a doctor committed to presenting him with a full picture of his health. “He was able to track [my health history] back through my labs,” he said.<\/p>\n

Black Men and Prostate Cancer<\/h2>\n

Prostate cancer is extremely common. A 2025 review in the Journal of the American Medical Association <\/a>states that “Prostate cancer is the most common nonskin cancer in men in the US.”<\/p>\n

The risk is even greater in the Black community. “Black men are disproportionately affected by prostate cancer, with earlier presentation, more aggressive disease, and higher mortality rates versus White men,” according to the American Cancer Society<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They are 70% more likely to develop prostate cancer. Their outcomes are worse as well. Black men are twice as likely to die<\/a> from prostate cancer. The disparity is even more significant in Eubanks’ home state of Georgia. It is fifth nationwide.<\/a><\/p>\n

Misconceptions about PSA Testing<\/h3>\n

Eubanks cited misinformation about how PSA levels are checked as one of the contributing factors for why people do not get tested.<\/p>\n

“Guys have to get out of their heads about having their prostate checked through the anus,” he said. PSA tests can be conducted through a rapid blood draw process. It is a quick and minimally invasive way to educate yourself about your health.<\/p>\n

An Overlooked Symptom<\/h3>\n

He pointed out a significant symptom<\/a> of prostate cancer that goes unnoticed. Previously, he attributed his frequent urination to the amount of water he was drinking. He was wrong. “That was a sign. You know? My bladder was overactive,” he declared.<\/p>\n

Finding Purpose Under Pressure<\/h2>\n

Eubanks partnered with ZERO Prostate Cancer<\/a> to help him spread awareness and increase access to those who need it the most. The organization has offered “resources, programs, and services” to those fighting or at risk for prostate cancer and their loved ones for nearly 30 years.<\/p>\n

They are aiming to ensure 10,000 men a month get appointments for PSA tests.<\/p>\n

Advocacy is nothing new to Eubanks. He has aided in producing health summits, community feedings, and other philanthropic events for decades through his church Victory for the World.<\/p>\n

He has comforted others on a smaller scale as well. A frequent traveler to Saint Lucia, he has brought back items to soothe those in his life who are dealing with the symptoms of illness.<\/p>\n

“I’ve been bringing back soursop leaves and bark and giving it to people that had health challenges, and lo and behold, I’m needing it now, so it’s just really interesting how God has been preparing me for this day, and I had no idea,” he said.<\/p>\n

Soursop has been known to “possess therapeutic effects due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and gastroprotective properties,” according to the\u00a0 Journal of Molecules<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

How Eubanks Practices Self-Care<\/h2>\n

He is currently meditating and working with his urologist and primary care provider on a treatment plan that is right for him.<\/p>\n

He strongly encouraged those without resources to attend public events and gain the knowledge they need. “When you have a health fair or summit or anything free in your community, go go go! Because the information is there, you have the medical professionals there.”<\/p>\n

It can be hard to prioritize your health as your to-do list expands. But Eubanks stressed the importance of putting your well-being first.<\/p>\n

“I encourage people to take the time. It’s your health,” he said. “No matter how much wealth, how many bedrooms you have in your house, what car you drive, without your health, none of that is relevant.”<\/p>\n

And while the world might know him for external elegance, Dwight Eubanks is focused on what lies within.<\/p>\n

“It doesn’t matter what label is on your shoes or outfits. None of that matters when you don’t have good health and strength,\u201d he added. “That’s the number one thing.”<\/p>\n
