Meet The Team

Inspiring men to live healthier.


The team and community behind our foundation, helping to move our mission forward.

Our Founder


Dr. Larry Goldenberg

Dr. S. Larry Goldenberg

CM, OBC, MD, FRCSC, FACS, FCAHS

Dr. S. Larry Goldenberg is the visionary Founder of CMHF and a celebrated champion of men’s wellness across the globe. He has served as a leading urologic surgeon and clinical scientist, a Professor in the Department of Urologic Sciences at the University of British Columbia and the Founding Director of the Vancouver Prostate Centre. His groundbreaking contributions to prostate cancer research and healthcare delivery have earned him prestigious inductions into both the Order of Canada and the Order of British Columbia.

Driven by the alarming reality that men often ignore early warning signs and lack male-tailored health resources, Dr. Goldenberg established CMHF to shift existing narratives and stop preventable health issues. Today, he remains actively involved in guiding the foundation’s holistic mission while continuing his vital work in medical research, patient education and healthcare innovation.
